Kit Malthouse made headlines in June 2025 for a cluster of rebel votes on the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, breaking from the Conservative majority on five separate amendments at Report Stage. His votes were notably cautious on safeguards: he backed amendments designed to close the loophole allowing voluntary starvation to qualify someone as terminally ill, while voting against procedural and structural amendments his party supported. This positions him as sceptical of the bill's current drafting rather than opposed to assisted dying in principle. More recently, he has been vocal in local media -- criticising government plans for ministerial override of housing decisions, lobbying on dangerous A34 slip roads, challenging heating oil price rises through the CMA, and pressing for support for Remembrance Day parades facing rising costs.

At 73% voting participation, Malthouse sits somewhat below the Commons average. He votes with his party 96% of the time, making him a broadly loyal Conservative, though his stance profile reveals some nuance -- he scores strongly on pro-business (90%), parliamentary scrutiny (86%), and Lords scrutiny (100%) dimensions, the last reflected in consistent votes to retain Lords amendments against the current Labour government. His speech activity is high, with 393 contributions spanning social care, health, economy, and defence.

Current Member of Parliament

Kit Malthouse

Kit Malthouse

Conservative and Unionist Party

The Rt Hon Kit Malthouse is the Conservative MP for North West Hampshire, and has been an MP continually since 7 May 2015.

Notable Votes

Vote on New Clause 106, which sought to require women to have an in-person medical consultation before receiving abortion medication, as a safety measure. This was debated alongside New Clause 1, which would have decriminalised abortion for women, making it a free vote on conscience issues around abortion law reform.

MP voted NoAgainst party majorityLikely whipped

Vote on a package of government new clauses to the Crime and Policing Bill at Report Stage, covering measures including: criminalising organising begging for profit, stronger protections for emergency workers against racial and religious abuse, removing the limitation period in child sexual abuse cases, and new offences around internal concealment of items for criminal purposes. The large Aye majority reflects broad government support for these law and order measures.

MP voted YesAgainst party majorityLikely whipped

Vote on whether to strengthen the advertising ban in the Assisted Dying Bill by requiring that any advertising restrictions also cover situations where advertisers know their adverts could influence vulnerable people's choices — going further than the basic ban proposed by the bill's sponsor Kim Leadbeater.
