Synopsis

The Rt Hon Caroline Nokes is the Conservative MP for Romsey and Southampton North, and has been an MP continually since 6 May 2010. She is Deputy Speaker (Second Deputy Chairman of Ways and Means).

Caroline Nokes has been an MP since May 2010, making her the 62nd longest-serving member of the current parliament and the 21st longest-serving Conservative MP. She has made 1,444 debate contributions across 461 debates, ranking her 6th overall among all active MPs and 2nd among MPs first elected in 2010, with particular focus on Foreign Affairs & Defence, Trade & Industry, and procedural matters. However, she has cast only 1 vote out of 575 eligible divisions, representing a 0.17% participation rate and ranking her 640th overall in voting. This represents a very large divergence between her exceptionally high debate contributions and her extremely low voting participation, which cannot be explained by a government post as she currently holds no ministerial position.
