TORY MP Philip Davies – whose Shipley constituency includes Menston and Burley-in-Wharfedale – has one of the best parliamentary voting records in the country.

New figures show he has voted in 88.5 per cent of the 156 Commons divisions since last May.

“I vote more often than any other MP in Bradford, speak in debates more often than any other MP in Bradford and ask more parliamentary questions too,” he said.

“I want to always make sure that the voice and interests of my constituents are fully heard in Parliament and I work as hard as possible to ensure that happens.”

Ilkley’s Kris Hopkins has the next best record of Bradford-district MPs, at 77.4 per cent.

The statistics show that both David Cameron (nine per cent) and Nick Clegg (18.1 per cent) miss most votes.

Ed Miliband (40.6 per cent) votes more often, but still missed more than half of the divisions.
