MP for Clwyd North
“A party-loyal Labour (Co-op) MP with unusually low parliamentary attendance, known for backing workers’ rights and renter protections while serving on the Welsh Affairs Committee.”
Gill German is a Labour (Co-op) MP for Clwyd North, first elected in 2024. She currently sits on the Welsh Affairs Committee and on the Licensing Hours Extensions Bill committee, and has previously served on the Work and Pensions Committee and the Public Authorities (Fraud, Error and Recovery) Bill committee.
She shows perfect party loyalty (100%) but has very low voting attendance (14%), well below the party average of 33%. Her voting record favours workers' rights protections and trade union powers, supports renter protections, and backs some VAT changes, while generally opposing Universal Credit and tougher prison sentences; her positions on mental health services, transgender rights, and climate change measures are mixed.
