MP for Walthamstow
“A high-attendance, party-loyal backbencher who has occasionally broken with Labour on welfare reform and security-related legislation.”
Stella Creasy is the Labour and Co-operative MP for Walthamstow, first elected in 2010. She has served on the Public Accounts Committee and the Science, Innovation and Technology Committee, and has held shadow ministerial roles in Home Affairs and in Business, Innovation and Skills.
Her voting record shows very high loyalty to her party (99%), with attendance well above the party average (79%). She has 12 rebel votes, indicating occasional independence. In policy terms, she has backed Universal Credit and NHS funding, supported bus services regulation, and opposed stricter immigration controls and the Rwanda deportation scheme, while taking mixed positions on VAT, transgender rights, trade unions and prison sentencing.
Declared six financial interests: four entries for ad hoc payments linked to employment and earnings, one entry for employment earnings, and one miscellaneous entry.
