MP for St Neots and Mid Cambridgeshire

Ian Sollom is a Liberal Democrat Member of Parliament for St Neots and Mid Cambridgeshire, elected on 4 July 2024. He serves as the Liberal Democrat Spokesperson for Universities and Skills (appointed September 2024) and has taken part in education-focused parliamentary work, including committee involvement on education and apprenticeships bills in early 2025.
Sollom votes with his party on all recorded votes (100% party loyalty) but his attendance is low at 12% (party average 19%). His record shows a mix of positions on policy areas: he has often opposed stronger workers’ rights protections and trade union powers, and opposed VAT changes, while voting in favour of mental health services, climate measures, transgender rights, and bus services regulation; he also shows a strong inclination towards stricter prison sentencing and mixed stances on Universal Credit and renter protections.
