Voting record
In the 411 recorded divisions where Sir Iain Duncan Smith and at least one other Conservative member were recorded voting, Sir Iain Duncan Smith voted the same way as most voting Conservative members 411 times (100.0%).
This compares Sir Iain Duncan Smith with other members of their own party who were recorded voting in the same division. It is not a measure of loyalty to a whip: Civometry holds no whipping records, so it cannot say which votes were whipped, and voting differently from party colleagues is not described here as a rebellion. Members not recorded in a division are excluded from the comparison rather than counted, because an absence from a division list is not a vote and does not mean the member was absent from the House.

These are the running costs of an MP’s office and staff, claimed within IPSA’s rules and paid by IPSA; they are not the member’s salary and not personal income. A claim is a claim, not a finding. Staffing costs are published by IPSA in aggregate categories, not per employee.
