The Government supported data sharing with the European Union. The Government recommended that it should not exercise its right to opt out of a draft Directive under Protocol 19 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (The Schengen Protocol) on the processing of personal data.

In important votes in the House of Commons if an MP votes to protect or preserve Britain’s democracy and economy from EU interference they are awarded a score of plus 2. If the MP votes in a way that harms our freedom, prosperity and sovereignty the MP receives a vote of minus 2. In the face of pressure from the Whips acting on behalf of their pro-EU leadership an abstention receives a score of plus 1. In the referendum of 23rd June 2016 if your MP supported Leave, they are awarded 10 points. If, however, they supported Remain then a score of minus 10 will be applied.
