MP for Cumbernauld and Kirkintilloch
“A largely loyal Labour backbencher with a centre-left stance who occasionally breaks ranks on private-sitting motions and end-of-life amendments.”
Katrina Murray is a Labour (Co-op) MP for Cumbernauld and Kirkintilloch, elected in July 2024. She sits on several parliamentary committees, including the Representation of the People Bill, Rare Cancers Bill, and the Northern Ireland Affairs Committee, reflecting involvement in constitutional issues, health and public services.
She has very high party loyalty at 98% (slightly below the party average of 99%), but a notably low attendance of 16% against a 34% party average, and she has six rebel votes. Her voting record generally supports workers’ rights, trade union powers, bus services regulation, mental health services, protest rights and renter protections, while she has tended to vote against prison sentencing and transgender rights, with mixed votes on universal credit and VAT changes.
Five financial interests are declared: two entries for gifts, benefits and hospitality from UK sources; two entries described as miscellaneous; and one entry for visits outside the UK.
