Camborne and Redruth.
Labour Party MP Perran Moon holds the seat on 40.5% of the vote.
3 Jun 2026
A steady party-line voter, Moon has nonetheless been active on local issues -- raising Royal Mail delays in Parliament, backing the National Trust's takeover of a Cornish mining attraction, and organising a Westminster event to showcase Cornish industries and heritage. His most recent votes back steel nationalisation and the government's King's Speech programme, both entirely in step with Labour. He has never voted against his party.
At 86% voting participation -- slightly above the Commons average -- Moon is engaged but not prominent nationally. His 330 contributions across 206 debates skew heavily toward economy and jobs (122 speeches), local government (65), environment (52), and energy (50), a pattern that reflects Cornwall's distinctive mix of post-industrial communities and coastal landscape. He votes at 97% alignment on progressive taxation and 93% on housing development, but scores low on pro-business votes (12%) and parliamentary scrutiny (9%), the latter suggesting he tends to back government positions over procedural challenges. He supported tighter asylum support rules in April 2026, in line with Labour but a signal of where he sits on the party's more contested terrain.
Two deviations from Labour peers stand out. He sits 28 percentage points below the party average on pro-local-democracy votes -- worth watching for a Cornwall MP given the county's long-running devolution debates. He is also slightly more resistant to assisted dying than the party average. Moon sits on no select committees. Local news coverage across 83 articles is broadly neutral, with education and SEND provision emerging as a recurring constituency concern alongside economic messaging. Rebel vote data is not yet available for his full term.
