Caroline Voaden, the Liberal Democrat MP for South Devon, was elected to the current parliament on 4 July 2024 and is relatively new to parliament compared to other MPs. She has demonstrated significantly stronger engagement in parliamentary debate than in voting, ranking 40th overall in debate contributions with 375 contributions across 222 debates, while her voting participation stands at only 36.52% with 168 votes cast, placing her 566th overall. Her debate contributions have focused primarily on child welfare and safeguarding, procedural matters, and education and skills. This substantial divergence between her strong debate ranking and weak voting ranking is notable and not explained by a government position, as she holds no ministerial role.
