MP for Lincoln
Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office)
“A party-loyal Labour MP who rarely rebels, prioritising workers’ rights and union powers, but with notably low parliamentary attendance.”
Hamish Falconer is the Labour (Co-op) MP for Lincoln, elected in July 2024. He serves as Parliamentary Under-Secretary for the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, a role he has held since July 2024 and continued into 2025.
Falconer shows 100% party loyalty (above the party average) and a very low attendance rate (12% vs 33% for the party). He has a strong record in favour of workers’ rights protections and trade union powers, with more mixed positions on other issues: generally supporting VAT changes and mental health services, while voting against stricter prison sentencing, renter protections and transgender rights; his votes on climate change measures are divided.
He has declared five financial interests, including donations and other support for his MP activities, land and property (within or outside the UK), miscellaneous interests, and shareholdings.
