MP for Swindon North
“A party-loyal backbencher who attends relatively few votes but has shown independence on end‑of‑life provisions.”
Will Stone is the Labour (Co-op) MP for Swindon North, elected in July 2024. He currently sits on the Backbench Business Committee as a backbench MP.
Stone has very high party loyalty (99%) but a notably low voting attendance rate (15%). He generally supports trade union powers and workers’ rights protections, and backs renter protections, while he has often opposed measures on mental health services, prison sentencing and bus services regulation. He recorded two rebel votes against the party on end‑of‑life clauses in the Terminally Ill Adults Bill on 13 June 2025.
