No written questions on file for Bridget Phillipson yet — this only covers what Hear, Hear has fetched so far (see Written questions), not necessarily every question Bridget Phillipson has ever tabled.
Business costs (IPSA)
£314,212.07 paid out to or for Bridget Phillipson across 333 claims — combining every financial year on file, not just the current one — covering office costs, accommodation, travel, and bought-in/temporary staffing. This does not include Bridget Phillipson’s permanent staff’s salaries — typically the biggest single share of an MP’s real costs — which IPSA only publishes once a year, after the year closes, as one aggregate figure, never as individual claims. Some categories (especially travel) are reported by IPSA as one whole-year total rather than itemised by date — marked “Aggregated” below. See MP expenses to filter this to a single year.
Early Day Motions
No Early Day Motions on file as tabled by Bridget Phillipson — this only covers motions tabled within Hear, Hear’s current tracking window (see Early Day Motions), not necessarily Bridget Phillipson’s full record.
