Store description excerpt
Who represents you — and what they actually do. Enter your postcode once and Backbench connects you to everyone who governs on your behalf: your MP, your mayor, your councillors, and your MSP, Senedd Member or MLA. Then it shows you what they're actually doing — drawn live from official public records, explained in plain English. HOW THEY VOTE Every Commons and Lords division, with the result at a glance and what the vote really decided — a second reading, an amendment, a timetable motion — decoded so you don't need a politics degree. See exactly how each MP voted, and how every party split. THE MONEY BEHIND THEM The Register of Members' Financial Interests — second jobs, gifts, hospitality — alongside donations declared to the Electoral Commission. Two registers, one screen. WHAT THEY'RE GOING FOR The bills each MP sponsors and the motions they table, so you can see what your representative is actually pushing for — not just what they say. BILLS, EXPLAINED Follow legislation from first reading to Royal Assent with a clear stage timeline and plain-English summaries. EVERY ELECTION YOU CAN VOTE IN Upcoming elections for your postcode and across the UK, with polling dates, photo-ID reminders, registration deadlines, and who's standing. FOLLOW YOUR PEOPLE Follow any politician and keep your list in sync across devices with one-tap Apple sign-in. No account needed to browse — everything is open. Backbench is independent and unaffiliated with any party or with Parliament. Data: UK Parliament, the Scottish Parliament, the Senedd, the Northern Ireland Assembly, the Electoral Commission, postcodes.io, and Democracy Club (CC BY 4.0).
