Synopsis

His parliamentary activity shows a marked divergence between his voting and debate participation, with a very low voting participation rate of 33.48% placing him 593rd overall, while his debate contributions rank him 332nd overall, suggesting he engages considerably more through spoken contributions than through voting divisions. His debate contributions have focused on policing and crime, immigration and asylum, and procedural matters, while his voting has concentrated on justice and law, parliamentary procedure, and employment issues. With no current government post, his low voting participation is not explained by ministerial responsibilities.
