My MP is Ken Clark - so clearly Remain.

My MP voted Remain, and came out as a lesbian.   Well, it's quite unusual.
They were the footprints of a gigantic hound!

Mine voted Remain.  I'd have been surprised had it been otherwise but you never can be sure, so I checked.

Actually, the referendum was a secret ballot. Nobody knows who voted Remain and who voted Leave even if they are MPs.

For the same reason, that poll breakdown of remain and leave by age group is not based on the referendum result but on polling by YouGov.

Mine (MP)  was definately a "leave"  though because it's on his own website.

I think an awful lot of them revealed their stance.

No point in not doing so as they got involved in the campaigns.

It would have been obvious in many cases.

Some labour MP's campaigned with David Cameron for Remain , a lot of them stood up this afternoon in the commons and mentioned it.

It's not that secret.

Thanks for that Rose.
My MP voted FOR bringing in the 3,000 children.
All I can say about Remain or Leave is that he stated publicly that he was pro-Remain and was going to vote that way.

My MP, Alun Cairns (Secretary of State for Wales) has publically stated that he voted to Remain.  He did not vote on the refugee issue.
