What is the role of a Member of Parliament?

The role of the MP is three-fold: they represent their constituency in Parliament, they give help and advice directly to constituents, and they play a part in their political party.

In Parliament the MP votes to give support to, or opposition against, laws and amendments to laws. The MP also contributes to debates where they are able to explore issues more fully.

Constituents can go to their MP for help and advice on issues such as housing, immigration, schools, benefits and pensions and so on. Constituents may also raise policy-related concerns with their MP.

The MP has regular communication with their local political party. They often communicate local issues to the national party.
