MP for Farnham and Bordon
Opposition Assistant Whip (Commons)
“A party-loyal backbencher who rarely rebels but records very low voting attendance.”
Gregory Stafford is a Conservative MP for Farnham and Bordon, first elected on 4 July 2024. He currently serves as an Opposition Assistant Whip in the Commons and sits on the Health and Social Care Committee. He has previously contributed to committee work on the Mental Health Bill [HL] and the Tobacco and Vapes Bill.
Stafford shows very high party loyalty (100% vs. 99% party average) but unusually low voting attendance (12% vs. 56% average). He has not recorded any rebel votes. On policy, he has supported Universal Credit and prison sentencing, and generally supports transgender rights and some transport regulation, while generally opposing workers' rights protections, trade union powers, VAT changes, renter protections and climate change measures, with a mixed approach to mental health votes.
Declares two financial interests: gifts, benefits and hospitality from UK sources, and miscellaneous interests.
