Enfield North.
Labour Party MP Feryal Clark holds the seat on 49.1% of the vote.
1 Jun 2026
Feryal Clark's most distinctive parliamentary act has been her consistent opposition to assisted dying legislation -- voting against the bill at Second Reading in November 2024, against Third Reading in June 2025, and taking the unusual step of backing an amendment that would have let religious employers prohibit staff from facilitating assisted dying. These are free votes, so they represent genuine personal conviction rather than party discipline. Beyond the chamber, she has been visible on two emerging issues: leading an APPG push for official recognition of online creators and influencers, and calling current gambling laws "indefensible" in a Commons debate -- citing 30 gambling venues in Enfield North as evidence of a local harm.
Her voting participation sits at 55%, below the Commons average, though MPs in government-facing roles or with heavy constituency caseloads often record lower figures. Where she does vote, she follows Labour's line 98% of the time -- a reliable party loyalist on fiscal policy, progressive taxation, and housing development. Her stance profile shows notable divergence from the Labour average on pension protection (100% versus the party's 43%) and she scores low on pro-civil-liberties and pro-parliamentary-scrutiny measures, suggesting she tends to back government executive authority over legislative or judicial checks. Her speech activity is substantial -- 89 contributions across 31 debates -- with technology and economy-jobs dominating, consistent with her creator economy work.
Local coverage over the past 90 days skews heavily toward crime, particularly knife crime, though average sentiment on those articles is flat, suggesting reporting rather than advocacy. She holds no current select committee seat. Her healthcare background -- recognised with an honorary degree for contributions to health science -- contextualises both her assisted dying stance and her health-related speeches. Coverage data covers 90 days; voting data extends to mid-2026.
