South Devon.

Coastal erosion, rural banking, and pelvic mesh compensation have dominated Caroline Voaden's recent work -- she has fought the government on several fronts through petitions, Prime Minister's Questions, and parliamentary debates on behalf of South Devon constituents. The most prominent of these is the Slapton Line: storm damage to the coastal road prompted a petition that gathered more than 40,000 signatures and a direct challenge to the Prime Minister for government funding. Separately, she raised pelvic mesh failures in the Commons and publicly criticised the government's exclusion of flood-hit Torcross from emergency funding -- a pattern of vocal, local-first advocacy that has generated significant news coverage.

In Parliament, Voaden votes with the Liberal Democrats 100% of the time and has no rebel votes on record. Her participation rate of 70% sits below the Commons average. She strongly supports Lords scrutiny (97% aligned) and parliamentary accountability (95%), which explains her recent votes backing Lords amendments to the English Devolution Bill and opposing government powers to direct pension fund investment. She voted to refer the Prime Minister to the Privileges Committee over the Mandelson appointment, and against asylum seeker support regulations she regards as punitive. Her 365 speech contributions span economy and jobs, social care, education, and local government. She sits on the Education Committee.

One notable gap in her voting record -- she is 32 percentage points below her own party's average on armed forces welfare votes, a deviation without obvious explanation from available data. Her local news coverage is high-volume but mixed in sentiment, reflecting a constituency with pressing infrastructure and rural services pressures. The data covers her since winning South Devon at the 2024 general election.
