'NEWCOMER OF THE HOUSE' Who is FEMALE1 Black and what’s her voting record?
FEMALE1 Black, the youngest elected MP ever, has established a reputation as a reliable and capable member of parliament.

But who is Black, and why did she slam the tables of Parliament?

FEMALE1 Black was born in September 1994. When she was sworn in, she had recently completed her first class undergraduate degree.

In her first speech after being appointed to the Work and Pensions Select Committee, she took a stance against the government's approach to unemployment.

In an authoritative speech, Black became the first MP to publicly denounce the recent vote on revoking government spending for training schemes in Parliament.

Otherwise she votes the same way as her party on the "vast majority" of issues.
FEMALE1 Black said she looks forwards to the next election as she “thrives” in parliament and finds it “rewarding”.

Asked directly if she will stand for re-election, she said: “Definitely. I think anyone who feels there is a need for their ideas in politics, should consider being the one to bring those ideas in.”
