MP for Normanton and Hemsworth
“Long-serving Labour MP with near-total party loyalty and strong attendance, who has nonetheless joined a few high-profile backbench rebellions.”
Jon Trickett is the Labour MP for Normanton and Hemsworth, first elected in February 1996. He has held a range of senior opposition roles, including Shadow Minister for the Cabinet Office and Shadow Lord President of the Council, reflecting a long career in Parliament.
Trickett shows very high party loyalty (99%) and an attendance rate of 63% (party average 33%). He has 12 rebel votes. He generally backs welfare measures such as Universal Credit and NHS funding, but tends to vote against tighter immigration controls and stricter asylum policies, with a mixed record on VAT and trade union powers, and he has consistently opposed the Rwanda deportation scheme and transgender-rights expansion.
Declared financial interests include two entries: donations and other support (including loans) for activities as an MP, and miscellaneous interests.
