MP for St Ives
“Party-loyal backbencher with zero rebel votes and relatively low attendance.”
Andrew George is a Liberal Democrat MP for St Ives, first elected in July 2024. He currently sits on the Health and Social Care Committee (from October 2024) and has previously held a range of parliamentary roles, including several shadow minister positions and committee posts focused on health, housing and the environment.
He shows full loyalty to his party with no rebel votes, but his parliamentary attendance is notably low at 13% (the party average is 21%). His voting record is mixed: he generally opposes workers’ rights protections and trade union powers, while voting in favour of transgender rights and prison sentencing. On Universal Credit, bus services regulation, protest rights, mental health services, VAT changes and renters protections his votes are varied.
Declares six financial interests, including three miscellaneous entries; one employment and earnings entry; one ongoing paid employment entry; and one entry for visits outside the UK.
