About your Member of Parliament

Your MP (Chris Kane) represents you, and all of the people who live in Stirling and Strathallan, 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.

• Youth Services 15 May 2025

  When we talk about youth services, we are really talking about the kind of country we want to be.
