For over 20 years, TheyWorkForYou has been making our democracy more transparent and our politicians more accountable.
We need your support to:
- Hold Power to Account — We highlight what our representatives are doing so they know the public is watching.
- Keep It Free and Accessible — No paywalls because everyone deserves unbiased information about decisions made on their behalf.
- Innovate and Go Further — How politics works is always changing and we're always looking for new opportunites to improve things.
We don't want to wait for a better political system to be given to us – we want to work together to make it happen now.
About Dan Norris
Dan Norris represents the people who live in North East Somerset and Hanham,
at the UK Parliament in Westminster.
MPs split their time between Parliament and their constituency.
In Parliament, they debate and vote on new laws, review existing laws, and question the Government.
In the constituency, their focus is on supporting local people and championing local issues.
They have a small staff team who help with casework, maintain their diaries, and monitor their inbox.
