Wycombe.

Wycombe's MP is now a Cabinet minister -- Emma Reynolds was appointed Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs in September 2025, a significant elevation that shapes everything else about her parliamentary record. In that role she has championed a £45 million government investment in tackling waste crime, drawing direct press coverage and NFU endorsement. Her voting record is an unblemished 100% with Labour's majority: no rebel votes, no abstentions of note, and straight-line support for the government's King's Speech programme and its tighter asylum support regulations in April 2026.

Her participation rate of 54% -- below the Commons average -- reflects the demands of a Cabinet brief rather than disengagement; ministers routinely vote less than backbenchers. Where she does vote, the pattern is consistent: strongly pro-workers' rights (93% aligned) and pro-progressive taxation (95%), but markedly sceptical of parliamentary and Lords scrutiny of the executive (15% and 0% aligned respectively). She sits noticeably to the right of her parliamentary party on criminal justice reform -- 39 percentage points below the Labour average -- and slightly tougher on immigration control. Her 382 speech contributions span economy, fiscal policy, cost of living, social care, and environment, broadly tracking her ministerial portfolio.

Local coverage -- 181 articles in 90 days -- is dominated by crime and community stories largely unconnected to Reynolds directly, giving her a near-neutral average sentiment score of 0.12. More positively, environment and economy coverage scores higher, consistent with her ministerial activity. She holds no select committee seats, as is standard for Cabinet ministers. Voting data covers her full tenure since July 2024; speech records are comprehensive.
