Matthew Patrick MP

Declared interests

MPs must register financial interests within 28 days. This is the register’s own text, republished verbatim from the official Register of Members’ Financial Interests. Registering an interest is a requirement met, not a finding against anyone.

The current register holds no entries matched to Matthew Patrick.

Voting record

In the 465 recorded divisions where Matthew Patrick and at least one other Labour member were recorded voting, Matthew Patrick voted the same way as most voting Labour members 457 times (98.3%).

This compares Matthew Patrick 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.

Donations reported to the Electoral Commission

£2,500 across 1 reported donations from 1 distinct donor name, received from 1 January 2019 onward.

Staffing and business costs paid by IPSA

2025-26: £19,245 across 54 claim lines; 2024-25: £175,493 across 206 claim lines.

Source: IPSA, MP staffing and business costs (Open Government Licence v3), joined on IPSA’s Parliamentary ID, which is Parliament’s member id. 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.

Meetings recorded in departmental transparency returns

38 meetings recorded under this name as a minister in the quarterly returns of Northern Ireland Office. The name in the department’s file matched exactly one member of the Commons, which is the only reason it is shown here.

Source: each department’s “ministerial gifts, hospitality, travel and meetings” return on GOV.UK (Open Government Licence v3), read by Civometry and listed under ministerial transparency. A recorded meeting establishes that the department published the line; it does not establish what was said or what followed. Every meeting is on the member’s graph page.
