MP for Central Ayrshire
“A party-loyal Labour (Co-op) MP who never rebels but has unusually low voting attendance.”
Alan Gemmell is the Labour (Co‑op) MP for Central Ayrshire, first elected on 4 July 2024. He has taken part in parliamentary work with an international focus, including serving on a committee connected to the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association and the International Committee of the Red Cross in November 2024.
Gemmell shows 100% party loyalty and no rebel votes, but his voting attendance is very low at 16%—well below the party average. He generally votes in favour of workers’ rights protections and trade union powers, with mixed positions on Universal Credit and climate measures, and he has opposed bus services regulation and transgender rights.
Declares nine financial interests, including gifts, benefits and hospitality from UK sources, overseas visits, a shareholding, and other miscellaneous interests.
