MP for Caithness, Sutherland and Easter Ross
“A party-loyal Liberal Democrat backbencher who is active in committees but has a small rebel streak on end-of-life legislation and policing measures.”
Jamie Stone is the Liberal Democrat MP for Caithness, Sutherland and Easter Ross, first elected in 2017. He sits on the Petitions Committee and the Liaison Committee, and since June 2025 has been a member of the Space Industry (Indemnities) Bill committee. He has previously served as Liberal Democrat spokesperson for Defence, Scotland and Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, and has held several committee roles.
He has 100% party loyalty and 58% voting attendance (well above the party average of 19%), with 5 rebel votes. His voting record shows a mix of positions on key issues: generally against tighter immigration controls and stricter asylum rules, with support for bus services regulation; his views on Universal Credit, NHS funding, VAT changes and prison sentencing are mixed. He has voted against the Rwanda deportation scheme.
Declares financial interests in land and property (within or outside the UK), miscellaneous interests, and shareholdings.
