Midlothian.

A loyalist with a busy constituency record, Kirsty McNeill has voted with Labour on every division since entering Parliament in July 2024 -- a 100% party-line record across 331 votes. Her most recent votes reinforce that pattern: she backed the government's asylum support tightening regulations in late April, voted against referring Keir Starmer to the Privileges Committee, and consistently supported the government's position on the Pension Schemes Bill through multiple rounds of Lords ping-pong. Her stance data shows she votes significantly more often in favour of immigration control than the Labour average (+25 percentage points) and more in favour of pension protection (+54 percentage points), driven largely by her consistent support for the government's pension consolidation and mandation powers.

At 64% voting participation, McNeill sits below the Commons average, though newly elected MPs representing Scottish seats often face travel constraints that depress that figure. Her 172 contributions across 47 debates show genuine parliamentary activity; economy and jobs dominate her speech topics, followed by fiscal policy and local government. She scores near-zero on pro-business stances and pro-parliamentary-scrutiny measures -- the latter reflecting her repeated votes to override Lords amendments rather than any personal position on scrutiny itself.

Outside Westminster, her local profile is notably active. She handled over 4,000 constituency cases in her first year, led a national delegation pushing for a social clubs charter, campaigned against Lothian Buses cuts with a 1,400-signature petition, and directed disabled residents to accessibility funding after consulting 50 families.
