MP for Knowsley
“A largely party-loyal Labour MP with very low attendance, who has shown rare independence on end-of-life legislation.”
Anneliese Midgley is a Labour and Co-operative MP for Knowsley, elected in 2024. She serves on the Culture, Media and Sport Committee and has sat on committees connected to the Secure 16 to 19 Academies Bill, with prior involvement in energy, employment rights and victims’ rights issues.
She shows strong party loyalty (99%), but her attendance is well below the party average (14%). She has two rebel votes against her party. In policy votes she consistently supports trade unions and workers’ rights protections, and generally backs VAT changes, while tending to vote against tougher prison sentences, renter protections, transgender rights and funding for mental health services. Her votes on universal credit, bus services regulation and climate change measures are mixed.
Declares four entries of gifts, benefits and hospitality from UK sources.
