Labour Party MP in Reform UK-controlled territory.

Jogee's most consistent act of parliamentary independence has been his opposition to assisted dying. He voted against the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill at Third Reading in June 2025, having backed several wrecking and tightening amendments at Report Stage — making him one of a minority of Labour MPs to oppose the bill at every turn. His deviations from Labour on this issue are the largest in his profile: 58 percentage points below his party's average support for assisted dying access. Beyond that, he won a notable constituency win in November 2025, when ex-miners in North Staffordshire received a substantial pension boost — an outcome local media directly credited to his campaigning as vice-chair of the Labour Group of Coalfield MPs.

Otherwise, Jogee votes with Labour 98.2% of the time, making him a near-loyalist on most issues. His participation rate of 69% sits below the Commons average. His 460 contributions across 235 debates skew heavily toward economy and jobs, local government, defence, and social care — a spread that tracks his constituency's industrial heritage and public services pressures. His low scores on parliamentary scrutiny (25%) and Lords scrutiny (6%) suggest he reliably backs government positions over amendment and delay. He sits on the Northern Ireland Affairs Committee.

The picture of his local standing is mixed. Coverage of his ex-miners pension work and road safety casework is positive, but a September 2025 poll projected he would lose his seat, reflecting wider anti-Labour sentiment in the area. Recent 90-day coverage is sparse and broadly neutral. Voting data runs to mid-2026; speech and news data are available to assess his activity across his first two years in Parliament.
