MP for Ealing Central and Acton
Dr Rupa Huq is the Labour and Co‑operative MP for Ealing Central and Acton, first elected in 2015. She currently serves on the Speaker's Conference (2024), the Culture, Media and Sport Committee (since 2024-10-21) and the Panel of Chairs (since 2024-07-30). Her parliamentary career has included service on a range of committees over the years.
Her voting record shows full party loyalty and attendance above the party average. On policy issues she tends to support NHS funding and bus services regulation, while generally opposing tighter immigration controls, changes to VAT, restrictions on the asylum system, transgender rights and the Rwanda deportation scheme. In areas such as Universal Credit, trade union powers and prison sentencing, her votes have been mixed rather than aligned to a single pattern.
She has seven declared financial interests: four overseas visits and three entries for gifts, benefits or hospitality from UK sources.
