- Whole term, 5 928 roll-call votes. The dots are the other members of S&D; no ranks.
- “No vote recorded” is not the same as absent: leave, illness and chairing the sitting look the same.
- A group’s line is inferred from its members’ votes — Parliament publishes no whip.
Every roll-call vote of the term with the member’s position, newest first.

Roll-call participation
One cell per sitting while in office, shaded by the share of that day’s roll calls the member voted in. The official attendance register is kept separately by Parliament.
"No vote recorded" is not the same as absent: leave, illness and chairing the sitting look the same.
