MP for Beaconsfield
Opposition Deputy Chief Whip (Commons)
“A highly loyal Conservative MP who rarely rebels, now serving as Opposition Deputy Chief Whip while focusing on welfare, energy and immigration policy.”
Joy Morrissey is the Conservative MP for Beaconsfield, first elected in 2019. She currently serves as Opposition Deputy Chief Whip in the Commons and sits on the Work and Pensions Committee, after previously holding roles including Government Whip (Lord Commissioner of HM Treasury) and Shadow Minister for Energy Security and Net Zero.
Her voting record shows near-total party loyalty (100%), with attendance below the party average (49% vs 56%). She has a centre-right position (56/100) and a mixed voting profile: generally supports immigration controls and the asylum system, generally votes against VAT changes, and often backs trade union powers, with a mixed pattern on Universal Credit, NHS funding, and transgender rights.
