MP for Bassetlaw
Jo White is a Labour (Co-op) MP for Bassetlaw, elected in July 2024. She serves on the Home Affairs Committee (since October 2025) and previously sat on the Border Security, Asylum and Immigration Bill committee in early 2025.
She shows complete party loyalty (100%, slightly above the Labour average) but has very low attendance (14%, far below the party average of 33%) and has no rebel votes. Her voting position places her in the centre-left (36/100). On key policy votes, she has generally supported trade union powers and workers’ rights protections, and backed VAT changes, while voting against tougher prison sentencing and against regulation of bus services and renter protections. She has also tended to vote against expansions of transgender rights, climate change measures, and mental health services; her Universal Credit votes show a mixed pattern across numerous votes.
Declared financial interests include four entries: three related to donations and other support (including loans) for activities as an MP, and one relating to gifts, benefits and hospitality from UK sources.
