MP for Normanton and Hemsworth
“A long‑serving Labour MP with near‑top party loyalty who has nonetheless rebelled on a handful of major Bills.”
Jon Trickett is a long‑standing Labour MP for Normanton and Hemsworth, first elected in 1996. He has held a range of high‑profile opposition roles, including Shadow Minister positions in the Cabinet Office and a lengthy spell as Shadow Lord President of the Council, illustrating a substantial parliamentary career.
Trickett shows strong party alignment, with 99% loyalty and attendance above the party average. He often backs policies on welfare and public services (e.g., Universal Credit and NHS funding) while taking more liberal positions on immigration and asylum issues, and his voting record includes a mix on VAT, trade union powers, and sentencing.
Two declared financial interests: donations and other support for activities as an MP, and miscellaneous.
