MP for North Warwickshire and Bedworth
“A party-loyal Labour backbencher with a centre-left tilt and unusually low parliamentary attendance.”
Rachel Taylor is the Labour and Co-operative MP for North Warwickshire and Bedworth, elected in July 2024. She sits on the Women and Equalities Committee and, from February 2026, the Select Committee on the Armed Forces Bill; she previously served on the Planning and Infrastructure Bill committee in 2025.
She has 100% party loyalty but low attendance (15%, below the Labour average of 33%), with zero rebel votes. Her record shows strong support for workers’ rights protections and trade union powers, and she backs renter protections. Beyond these, her votes are mixed on Universal Credit and mental health, generally against tougher prison sentencing and against bus service regulation, with a mixed stance on climate measures and transgender rights.
Declared interests include gifts, benefits and hospitality from UK sources; visits outside the UK; employment and earnings; shareholdings; land and property; and ad hoc payments.
