Meeting alerts →About Martin SCHIRDEWAN
Martin Schirdewan is a German Member of the European Parliament representing The Left in the European Parliament (GUE/NGL), the chamber's left-wing and socialist political grouping that advocates for progressive economic policies, social justice, and opposition to neoliberal reforms. Schirdewan previously served as co-leader of Germany's Die Linke (The Left) party from 2021 to 2024, bringing significant national political experience to his European role. His political background reflects The Left group's broader agenda of challenging austerity measures, promoting workers' rights, and advocating for democratic socialism within European institutions. Schirdewan's transition from national party leadership to European parliamentary work demonstrates his commitment to advancing left-wing politics across both German and EU political spheres.

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.
