Sammy Wilson
Democratic Unionist Party · Member of Parliament for East Antrim · in the Commons since 2005-05-05
The Democratic Unionist Party contests seats only in Northern Ireland, so this seat is a Northern Ireland one — a fact of the party, not a guess from the constituency name. Members of the Great Britain–wide parties carry no such note, because their seat’s nation is not derivable without a constituency lookup the source does not provide.

Recent participation
Sammy Wilson voted in 16 of the last 25 Commons divisions — Parliament’s term for a recorded vote, so called because members divide into two lobbies to be counted — (2026-06-24 to 2026-09-04). This measures a recent window, not a career — and a missed division is not necessarily an absence: abstention is unrecorded by design, and pairing and proxy arrangements mean members can be legitimately absent from the lists. The number is the record; the interpretation needs those caveats.
