Declared interests
MPs must register financial interests within 28 days. This is the register’s own text, republished verbatim from the official Register of Members’ Financial Interests. Registering an interest is a requirement met, not a finding against anyone.
Miscellaneous
- Solicitor, non-practising since 8 May 2015. (registered 19 July 2021)

Voting record
In the 380 recorded divisions where Jo Stevens and at least one other Labour member were recorded voting, Jo Stevens voted the same way as most voting Labour members 380 times (100.0%).
This compares Jo Stevens with other members of their own party who were recorded voting in the same division. It is not a measure of loyalty to a whip: Civometry holds no whipping records, so it cannot say which votes were whipped, and voting differently from party colleagues is not described here as a rebellion. Members not recorded in a division are excluded from the comparison rather than counted, because an absence from a division list is not a vote and does not mean the member was absent from the House.
