MP for Norwich South
“A loyal Labour MP with a strong attendance record who occasionally rebels on welfare, education funding and public order legislation.”

He has sat on environmental and science committees and has held shadow frontbench roles including Treasury, Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, Defence, and Energy and Climate Change, with a focus on environmental and social issues throughout his parliamentary career.
Lewis votes with his party most of the time (99% loyalty) and has a higher-than-average attendance (67%).
