About Luke Ming FLANAGAN

Luke Ming Flanagan is an Irish independent MEP who sits with The Left in the European Parliament (GUE/NGL), a grouping that advocates for left-wing and socialist policies across the EU. A former local and county councillor from Roscommon, Flanagan gained national prominence as a cannabis legalization activist before entering electoral politics. He was first elected to the European Parliament in 2014 and secured re-election in 2019, representing the Midlands-North-West constituency. Known for his outspoken style and advocacy for rural Ireland, he has maintained his independent status while aligning with The Left group's agenda of promoting social justice, workers' rights, and opposition to austerity measures within EU policy frameworks.

Methodology

Attendance is calculated based on roll-call votes in plenary sessions of the European Parliament. Committee votes are excluded. Abstaining counts as present; not voting counts as absent. Sittings for which the Parliament officially excused a Member (Rule 162, illness, family, official mission, or maternity) are credited, not counted as absences. Notable votes are selected based on significance, close outcomes, and high participation.
