Aligned with their council.

Fleur Anderson's most conspicuous recent act has been a sustained rebellion over the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill — the most significant conscience vote of this parliament. She voted against the bill at Third Reading in June 2025, supported tighter safeguards including a clause that would have barred applications driven by a fear of being a burden, and backed a devolution amendment at Report Stage. Her deviation from the Labour party average on assisted dying sits at 54 percentage points — the sharpest gap in her record — making this a defining vote for her in this parliament.

Beyond that rebellion, Anderson is a 98.6% party-line voter who participates in 74% of votes — slightly below the Commons average. Her voting record skews strongly towards workers' rights and progressive taxation, and she consistently backs government planning and employment reforms. She speaks frequently: 192 contributions across 76 debates, with economy, defence, health, and social care dominating her topics. Her Foreign Affairs Committee seat also pulls her into defence debates. Where she deviates from Labour colleagues, the pattern is consistent: lower alignment on public health, NHS funding, and child welfare votes, which may reflect selective engagement rather than principled opposition.

The most positive recent coverage concerns her local campaigning rather than parliamentary work — she secured government-backed legislation banning plastic in wet wipes after a four-year campaign, and is credited with pushing TfL toward feasibility studies for step-free access at two Putney Underground stations. Recent 90-day news data shows a higher volume of crime and prisons coverage at near-zero sentiment scores, suggesting she appears in those stories as a commentator rather than a protagonist. Voting data extends to July 2026; speech-level detail is available for most major debates.

Background

Fleur Anderson is the Labour MP for Putney, and has been an MP continually since 12 December 2019.
