Chris Curtis is a British Labour Party politician serving as the Member of Parliament (MP) for Milton Keynes North since 2024.
Early life
Curtis is from Milton Keynes. He graduated from the University of Exeter in 2015 with a Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Politics.
Career
Curtis is a pollster by profession and worked as a Political Research Manager for YouGov. He was a political researcher for them in 2017. He was also Head of Political Polling at Opinium Research.
In 2022, he alleged his former employer had stopped him from publishing the findings of a survey following a TV debate during the 2017 election campaign. He clarified his position after YouGov founder Nadhim Zahawi was forced to deny he had wielded any influence. Prior to being elected to Parliament, Curtis worked for think tank Labour Together.
In November 2024, Curtis voted in favour of the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, which proposes to legalise assisted suicide.
