Labour and Co-operative Party MP in Reform UK-controlled territory.

Sally Jameson's most significant recent act was voting against the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill at every stage on 20 June 2025 — opposing Third Reading, rejecting amendments that would have expanded the bill's scope, and supporting stricter safeguards including a clause that would have disqualified applications driven by fear of burdening others or by financial hardship. Her voting pattern placed her well to the sceptical end of Labour's internal divide on the issue: she sits 47 percentage points below her party's average on assisted dying access, and 32 points above it on restrictions. Beyond that conscience vote, she is a 97.5% party-line MP on parliamentary divisions.

Her parliamentary engagement sits at 86% — a little above the Commons average — and her speech record is substantial: 133 contributions across 90 debates, led by economy and jobs, local government, social care, and fiscal policy. She votes consistently with Labour on fiscal responsibility, workers' rights, and progressive taxation, with a 100% alignment on the last of these. She scores low on parliamentary scrutiny and Lords oversight measures, typical of government-loyalist MPs. Her deviations from party average beyond assisted dying include a notably higher alignment with NHS funding and disability rights positions.

Outside the chamber, she has been visible in Doncaster Central on cost-of-living surgeries, youth homelessness fundraising, school visits, and a campaign for a free city-centre bus service. News coverage over the past 90 days spans crime, local jobs, and transport, with generally neutral sentiment. She holds no select committee seat, so her specialist influence runs through speeches rather than formal scrutiny roles.
