Most people know their local MP to some degree and have some idea about the big names in government, but there are over six hundred members of parliament, don't you think you should know a bit about them too?

Thats a problem we here at Who Works For You aims to solve by bringing you weekly profiles on every MP. We'll dive in to their background, digging for all the pertinent information you deserve to now, from voting histories, to public mistakes, to the few and far between genuinely benevolent action.

Today we're looking in to:
