Angela Eagle.
Labour Party MP for Wallasey.

14 Jul 2026
Aligned with their council.
A government minister voting 100% with Labour, Angela Eagle has spent recent weeks supporting Windsor Framework machinery regulations, backing the removal of the automatic academy preference for new schools, and voting to extend employment tribunal time limits from three to six months — a change aimed at workers facing maternity discrimination. Her most visible recent action was supporting planning regulations that strip elected councillors of the power to block small housing developments, handing those decisions to planning officers instead.
Eagle is a 74% participation voter, below the Commons average, though ministerial duties routinely reduce voting attendance. She has not once broken with her party. Her stance profile marks her as strongly pro-workers'-rights and pro-progressive-taxation, while scoring low on civil liberties, parliamentary scrutiny, and business-friendly votes — a pattern consistent with a loyalist from Labour's centre-left. Compared with her parliamentary colleagues, she votes notably more often in favour of assisted dying access, anti-fossil-fuel-subsidy measures, and NHS funding. Immigration, agriculture, and the economy dominate her 659 recorded contributions across 91 debates.
Context matters here. Eagle has served as Farming Minister since September 2025, which explains why agriculture has become a top speech topic and why recent news coverage of her is skewed towards rural affairs — with positive sentiment in that area, averaging 0.7 out of 1. She also secured a £20m regeneration grant for Seacombe in her constituency. The highest-impact news items in the dataset are several years old and concern internal Labour disputes from the Corbyn era; recent 90-day coverage is broadly neutral across transport, crime, and planning. No committee memberships are recorded.
Dame Angela Eagle is the Labour MP for Wallasey, and has been an MP continually since 9 April 1992. She currently holds the Government post of Minister of State (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs).
