Linsey Jayne Farnsworth is a British Labour Party politician serving as Member of Parliament (MP) for Amber Valley since 2024.

Early life and career

Farnsworth was raised in Erewash, Derbyshire and the first in her family to attend university.[1] Her father was a coal miner who, following mine closures, retrained as a bricklayer and her stepmother was a nurse.[2]

Qualifying as a solicitor in 2001,[3] Farnsworth worked as a criminal solicitor for the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) for over two decades.[4][5] During her tenure at the CPS, she prosecuted serious and organised crime as an international liaison prosecutor.[1]

Political career

Farnsworth was elected as MP for Amber Valley at the 2024 general election, defeating incumbent Conservative Nigel Mills.[7]

In November 2024, Farnsworth voted in favour of the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, which proposes to legalise assisted suicide.[8]
