Tom Morrison.

Tom Morrison's most conspicuous move since entering parliament has been breaking with his party three times on assisted dying. He voted against the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill at Second Reading, against an amendment that would have excluded self-starvation as a qualifying route to terminal diagnosis, and against Third Reading in June 2025 — each time defying a Liberal Democrat majority in favour of the bill. On nearly everything else he votes with his party: a 99% alignment rate makes those three votes the sharpest signal of individual conscience in his record.

His participation rate of 54% sits below the Commons average, though the figure is partly explained by the volume of divisions in this parliament rather than absence from key votes. His stance profile shows strong alignment with parliamentary scrutiny, Lords reform, and opposition to the employer National Insurance rise, while he consistently breaks against progressive taxation measures — scoring 0% on that axis compared to his party's 20%. Local government, social care, and health dominate his speeches across 93 contributions in 56 debates. His most notable campaign win came in March 2026, when the government announced new nursery safety regulations following a case he had championed since meeting bereaved parents in his constituency.

Morrison sits on the Procedure Committee and the Committee of Selection — roles that shape how parliament runs rather than scrutinising specific policy areas. Recent news coverage is largely neutral in sentiment across economy, housing, and transport stories; the one cluster with positive scores relates to his health advocacy work. He has also publicly pushed for Metrolink expansion to Cheadle, writing to the Greater Manchester Mayor on the issue. Data on his pre-2024 record is limited, as he entered parliament at the last general election.
