Daisy Cooper's most notable recent act was backing a Commons motion to refer Prime Minister Keir Starmer to the Privileges Committee over whether he misled Parliament on the Peter Mandelson appointment -- a vote that put her alongside the Conservatives and other opposition parties. She also voted against government regulations tightening asylum support, arguing they risked destituting vulnerable people, and opposed the government's reserve power to direct pension fund investments, siding repeatedly with the Lords on both the Pension Schemes Bill and the English Devolution and Community Empowerment Bill. Her one rebel vote against her own party came on the assisted dying bill, where she backed a new clause on guidance -- slightly below the Lib Dem average on safeguards provisions.

Cooper is an active parliamentarian at 72% voting participation, close to the Commons average, and votes with the Lib Dems on 99.7% of divisions. Her 278 speech contributions span economy and jobs, fiscal policy, social care, and cost of living. The stance data reveals a consistent pattern: she strongly backs Lords scrutiny (97%), parliamentary oversight (95%), climate action (88%), and business-friendly measures (86%), while voting against employer National Insurance increases in every relevant division. She deviates modestly from her party average on Brexit sovereignty questions and welfare expansion, though neither gap is dramatic.

Locally, Cooper has been visible on constituency issues -- attending a care provider visit, joining a CPR training campaign, supporting a Ramadan event in Chiswell Green, and co-ordinating a 130,000-signature petition on children's education rights. Local press coverage is high volume but broadly neutral in tone. She holds no select committee seat, so her influence runs primarily through chamber speeches and constituency campaigning. Data covers activity up to late April 2026.
