Each row is one party. The bar shows how its MPs voted relative to a neutral midpoint — to the right = on-side with the majority position, to the left = opposed. The percentage figure is the share of that party’s MPs who took the same side: higher = more whip-disciplined, closer to 50% = a freer vote.
| Party | Stance vs neutral midpoint | Net % | Discipline | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Labour Party | Lab | +50 | 100% on-whip · 211 MPs | |
| Conservative and Unionist Party | Con | -50 | 0% on-whip · 69 MPs | |
| Labour and Co-operative Party | Ind | +50 | 100% on-whip · 22 MPs | |
| Reform UK | Ref | +50 | 100% on-whip · 5 MPs |

Council service spend lives on the council pages today; cross-cut by issue here in a follow-on pass.
