MP for Bristol North East
“A party-loyal Labour backbencher who champions workers' rights and protest freedoms while opposing strict immigration and asylum policies.”
Damien Egan is a Labour (Co-op) MP for Bristol North East, elected in February 2024. He sits on the Work and Pensions Committee and on the Bus Services (No. 2) Bill committee, and has previously served on committees for the Pension Schemes Bill and the Public Authorities (Fraud, Error and Recovery) Bill.
Egan has a 100% party loyalty score but a notably low attendance rate of 17% (well below the party average). He has no rebel votes. His record shows a centre-left stance with general support for workers' rights protections and protest rights, and consistent opposition to asylum and immigration controls and to the Rwanda deportation scheme, alongside mixed voting on issues like Universal Credit, VAT, mental health services and bus services regulation.
Declared financial interests include two entries: one miscellaneous item and one entry relating to visits outside the UK.
