MP for Edmonton and Winchmore Hill
“A loyal Labour MP with a strong focus on international development and welfare issues, who has occasionally rebelled on high‑profile policy moves.”
Kate Osamor is the Labour and Co-operative MP for Edmonton and Winchmore Hill, first elected in 2015. She has held roles focused on international development and equality, and has served on a range of parliamentary committees, including the Public Accounts Committee and committees dealing with arms export controls and international development oversight.
Osamor has 100% party loyalty and a voting attendance of 66%, well above the party average. Her record shows support for NHS funding and bus services regulation, while generally opposing tighter immigration controls and transgender rights; she has a mixed voting pattern on Universal Credit, asylum issues and certain EU trade deals, reflecting a selective, public‑services‑oriented stance within a centre-left orientation.
