Won by Con in its first election in 2024 by 7.6%. Covers Barton-upon-Humber, Humberston and New Waltham and Grimsby. Population 93,867, notably older (median age 48 vs 41 nationally). Recorded crime is 48% below the national average.

Vickers has twice broken with his Conservative colleagues to back the Tobacco and Vapes Bill -- voting for it at both Second and Third Reading despite his party's majority opposing it -- making public health one of his rare points of departure from the Conservative line. Otherwise, he has been a near-perfect party loyalist (99% alignment), voting consistently against tax increases and in favour of business interests, siding with the opposition on oil and gas licensing and defence spending in recent months, and backing Lords amendments to the Victims and Courts Bill that the Conservative majority also supported against the Labour government.

His parliamentary participation stands at 70%, somewhat below the Commons average, though his 35 speech contributions across 28 debates show genuine activity when present. Economy and jobs dominate his speaking record (19 contributions), followed by defence (12) and cost of living (7). He deviates from his party average on assisted dying, voting against access at a notably higher rate than most Conservative MPs. His stance profile shows strong alignment with anti-tax and pro-business positions, with near-zero support for progressive taxation or the current government's budget agenda -- a conventional Conservative pattern throughout.
