MP for Kilmarnock and Loudoun
“A centre-left Labour MP with high party loyalty who has occasionally rebelled on end‑of‑life legislation and universal credit measures.”
Lillian Jones is a Labour (Co-op) MP for Kilmarnock and Loudoun, first elected in 2024. She currently serves on the Commons Finance Committee and the Scottish Affairs Committee, focusing on financial and Scottish issues. She is a backbencher with a centre‑left stance.
Jones generally supports workers’ rights protections and trade union powers, and has backed renter protections and VAT changes. She tends to vote against protest rights and mental health service expansions, with a mixed record on Universal Credit, bus services regulation, and prison sentencing. Her party loyalty is very high (98%), but she has a notably low voting attendance (13%) and several rebel votes.
Two declared financial interests: one related to donations and other support for activities as an MP (including loans); one miscellaneous.
