FAQs

How is this ranking calculated?

Current MPs ranked by total registered outside earnings, the money declared for employment and work outside Parliament in the Register of Members' Financial Interests. This is separate from an MP's salary and from IPSA expenses. Registering outside earnings is a requirement, not a breach; figures are the sum of declared payments in the current register.

Where does the data come from?

Rankings use official UK Parliament data, the Commons Votes API for voting and the Members API for MP details. Some measures are locally derived analysis by Ayes and Noes and are labelled as such; see the methodology on the statistics overview.

How often is it updated?

The ranking reflects the most recent data import. It refreshes as new divisions and member data are imported.
