MP for Wythenshawe and Sale East
“A party-loyal Labour MP with a strong transport background who has occasionally rebelled on a handful of amendments, including on the End of Life Bill.”
Mike Kane is the Labour and Co-operative MP for Wythenshawe and Sale East, first elected in 2014. He has held government and opposition roles related to transport, including a period as Parliamentary Under-Secretary for Transport (2024–2025), and has served in shadow portfolios across transport, education and international development.
