MP for Bracknell
Peter Swallow is Labour (Co-op) MP for Bracknell, first elected in 2024. He serves on several parliamentary committees, including the Education Committee and the Joint Committee on Human Rights, and sits on a number of bill committees such as the Royal Albert Hall Bill and the General Cemetery Bill. His parliamentary record also shows involvement in the Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education transfer of functions bill committee in 2025.
Swallow shows strong party loyalty (100%), but has an unusually low voting attendance (15%), with one rebel vote, placing him in the centre-left (35/100). He generally backs trade union powers, workers’ rights protections and renter protections, while typically opposing mental health services and transgender rights; votes on Universal Credit, VAT and climate measures are mixed, and he tends to oppose tougher prison sentencing and bus services regulation.
Declares two financial interests: a family member engaged in third-party lobbying, and visits outside the UK.
