MP for South Northamptonshire
“A party-loyal backbencher with unusually low voting attendance.”
Sarah Bool is the Conservative MP for South Northamptonshire, elected in 2024. She serves on the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee and on the Select Committee on the Armed Forces Bill, with prior committee work on Border Security, Asylum and Immigration and on the Tobacco and Vapes Bill.
She votes consistently with the Conservative whip (100% loyalty) but her voting record shows a mix of positions. She generally opposes strengthening trade union powers and workers' rights protections, and she votes against VAT changes and many climate measures, while supporting mental health services and prison sentencing, and regulating bus services; Universal Credit votes are evenly split.
Her declared financial interests include 12 entries of gifts, benefits and hospitality from UK sources and two entries for visits outside the UK.
