As a result of COVID-19, some MPs have been less able to vote in Parliament, and this will be reflected in their voting record.

Show more detail

11th May to 2nd June 2020

All MPs could vote remotely through an online voting tool. Votes cast remotely are shown as normal on the TheyWorkForYou voting record.

2nd to 9th June 2020

The option of online voting was removed, and a number of MPs may have been unable to vote because they were not physically able to attend.

10th June 2020 onwards

The requirements on proxy voting were relaxed, allowing MPs to designate another MP to cast a vote on their behalf.

If an MP votes by proxy, it is effectively exactly the same as if they cast the vote in person and it shows up on their TheyWorkForYou voting record.

MPs are not required to designate a proxy, and may instead pair with an opposing MP to miss a vote. Parliament does not record when two MPs have come to a pairing arrangement, so on TheyWorkForYou, they will both appear to have been absent for the vote.

We will update this information if the situation changes. See more detail on votes during the COVID-19 period here.

Angela Rayner’s voting in Parliament

Angela Rayner is a Labour MP, and on the vast majority of issues votes the same way as other Labour MPs.

However, Angela Rayner sometimes differs from their party colleagues, such as:

Angela Rayner voted against replacing Trident with a new nuclear weapons system; most current Labour MPs generally voted for. Show votes 0 votes for, 1 vote against, 3 absences, in 2016. Labour, 11 votes, between 2000–2019

We have lots more plain English analysis of Angela Rayner’s voting record on issues like health, welfare, taxation and more. Visit Angela Rayner’s full vote analysis page for more.
