MP for Portsmouth North
“A party-loyal backbencher who rarely rebels but misses most votes.”
Amanda Martin is the Labour (Co-op) MP for Portsmouth North, elected in July 2024. She currently serves on several committee bills, including the General Cemetery Bill [HL], the Norwich Livestock Market Bill [HL], and the Unauthorised Entry to Football Matches Bill, and she previously sat on the Education Committee.
She has 100% party loyalty with no rebel votes, but a low voting attendance of 15% (compared with the party average of 33%). Her record shows a mix of positions: on Universal Credit she has voted both aye and no; she generally supports trade unions and workers’ rights protections, and has generally voted for VAT changes. She has generally voted against prison sentencing, bus services regulation, renter protections, transgender rights, and mental health services, with climate change measures showing a split; her overall stance sits around the centre (49/100).
Declared financial interests total 14. These include six miscellaneous entries, five gifts, benefits and hospitality from UK sources, two gifts/benefits from sources outside the UK, and one visit outside the UK.
