MP for Portsmouth South
Government Whip, Lord Commissioner of HM Treasury
“A loyal Labour MP who rarely rebels but has two notable rebellions on major policy issues.”
Stephen Morgan is a Labour (Co-op) MP for Portsmouth South, first elected in 2017. He is currently Government Whip, Lord Commissioner of the Treasury, a role he began in September 2025. His career includes serving as Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Education (2024–2025) and various shadow roles, along with earlier service on the Public Accounts Committee.
Morgan has 100% party loyalty and attends votes at a rate higher than the party average. He generally supports Labour’s positions on welfare and workers’ rights, voting for measures such as workers’ rights protections and, in some cases, NHS funding and bus services regulation, while often opposing tighter immigration controls and the Rwanda deportation scheme. His record on VAT, transgender rights, and trade union powers shows a mix of positions, with two identified rebel votes against the party in 2018 and 2019.
