Labour Sheffield Brightside and Hillsborough
Based on 9 recorded Commons divisions at Second or Third Reading of bills tracked by Hear, Hear — not a full voting record. “Didn’t vote” means Parliament has no vote recorded for them in that division (absent, abstained, paired, or excused). See the All votes tab below for every division.

Every Commons division on file for Gill Furniss — amendments, motions and opposition-day votes as well as bills. Took part in 1,658 of 2,325 (71%). Recorded in both lobbies (a deliberate abstention) 1 time.
Covers 9 Mar 2016 to 11 Sep 2026 — Parliament’s votes data doesn’t go back further. “No vote recorded” is Parliament’s own list of members with nothing recorded for that division: it can mean absent, deliberately abstaining, paired, or excused, and the data doesn’t say which.

Gill Furniss doesn’t currently hold a government or shadow front-bench post, but has in the past. See Government for who else currently holds one.

No written questions on file for Gill Furniss yet — this only covers what Hear, Hear has fetched so far (see Written questions), not necessarily every question Gill Furniss has ever tabled.
£330,892.18 paid out to or for Gill Furniss across 157 claims — combining every financial year on file, not just the current one — covering office costs, accommodation, travel, and bought-in/temporary staffing. 1 claim on file weren’t paid out (rejected, withdrawn, or otherwise not approved). This does not include Gill Furniss’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.
Gill Furniss has tabled 1 Early Day Motion on file (as primary sponsor), drawing 22 sponsor signatures in total across them. This only counts motions Gill Furniss personally tabled — not motions Gill Furniss may have added their name to as a supporter, which this data source doesn’t track per MP. See Early Day Motions for what this does and doesn’t cover.
Gill Furniss is a listed officer of 4 All-Party Parliamentary Groups on file. See APPGs for the full register and the biggest funders overall.
Biggest declared funder across these groups: Healthcomms Consulting Ltd (part of the PLMR Group) — about £53,250.50 across 1 group (All-Party Parliamentary Group on Women's Health).
Read this carefully: funding is declared by the group (often to pay for a secretariat that runs it), not paid to Gill Furniss personally, and declaring it is a legal requirement rather than a sign of wrongdoing. This only covers groups Gill Furniss is a listed officer of — ordinary members aren’t published. Amounts are Parliament’s own figures; where it gave a banded range the midpoint is used, so totals are approximate. Funders are grouped by name, so the same organisation spelled very differently may appear twice.
