MP for Fylde
Opposition Assistant Whip (Commons)
“A party-loyal Conservative MP who rarely rebels and holds an Opposition Whip role, but with notably low voting attendance.”
Andrew Snowden is the Conservative MP for Fylde, elected on 4 July 2024. He currently serves as Opposition Assistant Whip in the Commons and has sat on committees including the Crown Estate Bill [HL] (29 January–6 February 2025) and the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Bill (28–31 October 2024). He has declared multiple financial interests related to donations and other support for his activities as an MP, including gifts and hospitality from UK sources.
Snowden demonstrates very high party loyalty (100%) but very low voting attendance (about 10%), with a single rebel vote against his party. His record shows a largely conservative stance: he generally votes against welfare expansion, VAT changes, workers’ rights protections, trade union powers, renter protections, mental health funding, and stronger data protection, while casting limited votes in favour of transgender rights and showing a mixed pattern on bus regulation and prison sentencing.
Seven declared financial interests in total: six entries for donations and other support for activities as an MP (including loans) and one entry for gifts, benefits and hospitality from UK sources.
