MP for Cramlington and Killingworth
“A party-loyal backbencher who rarely rebels but has notably low voting attendance.”
Emma Foody is a Labour (Co-op) MP for Cramlington and Killingworth, first elected in July 2024. She serves on education policy committees, currently on the Secure 16 to 19 Academies Bill since June 2025, and has previously sat on committees for the Animal Welfare (Import of Dogs, Cats and Ferrets) Bill and the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill. Her voting record shows full party loyalty (100%) with attendance below the party average, and she has built a profile around education and social policy.
