Stalybridge and Hyde.

As Secretary of State for Business and Trade, Jonathan Reynolds voted against his party twice on assisted dying -- opposing both the Second Reading in November 2024 and the Third Reading in June 2025 of the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill. Both were free votes, so this reflects personal conviction rather than rebellion, but it places him among the Cabinet ministers who publicly opposed the legislation as it passed to the Lords. Beyond that conscience issue, his voting record is firmly loyal: 99.3% alignment with Labour across more than 270 recorded votes.

Reynolds participates in 52% of votes -- below the Commons average -- but his ministerial role makes that expected; Secretaries of State routinely miss more divisions than backbenchers. His speeches, spread across 414 contributions, concentrate heavily on the economy, jobs, energy, and technology, consistent with his brief. He votes 100% in line with progressive taxation positions and fully backs housing development, but deviates notably from his party on pension protection (17% versus a party average of 46%) and scores 0% on pro-parliamentary-scrutiny votes -- both figures reflecting the government's position on Lords amendments and reserve ministerial powers rather than idiosyncratic stances. Local coverage over the past 90 days is broadly neutral, with transport and housing the dominant issues; he appeared at groundbreaking ceremonies for a new Greater Manchester bypass and visited a Hyde supported-housing scheme.

His constituency profile is that of an engaged local operator alongside a senior ministerial role. No committee memberships are listed, which is standard for Cabinet ministers. Speech data runs to July 2025, so more recent parliamentary contributions may not be fully captured here.
