Órfhlaith Begley is a Sinn Féin MP elected for West Tyrone in July 2024, and like all Sinn Féin members, does not take her seat in Parliament due to her party's abstentionist policy, which explains her zero voting and debate contributions. She was first elected in May 2018 and is the third longest-serving member of the seven Sinn Féin MPs in the current parliament. Her lack of parliamentary activity is not a matter of personal choice but rather reflects Sinn Féin's principled decision not to participate in Westminster proceedings.
