Full description
BugBen makes UK parliamentary democracy easy to follow and easy to take part in. FOLLOW WHAT PARLIAMENT IS DOING • Every current bill, in plain English, with an AI-assisted summary, the arguments for and against, and a clear stage-by-stage timeline. • Acts of Parliament — what actually became law. • Real division results: who voted, which way, and whether it passed. KNOW WHO REPRESENTS YOU • Find your MP from your postcode — or, with your permission, from your approximate location. Your location is used once and never stored. • MP and Lords profiles with voting records and public sentiment. • Parties, leadership and stances at a glance. • See our daily polls and find petitions to Parliament HAVE YOUR SAY • Support, oppose or sit on the fence for any bill, MP or Lord — and see how the country splits. • The daily poll and the Mood Index: a rolling, demographically broken-down measure of how the UK thinks it's going. STAY IN THE LOOP • Follow a bill and get notified when it moves, passes or falls. • Quiet hours, per-category controls, and a notification centre. • A personalised feed of the things you follow — and nothing you don't. WHERE OUR INFORMATION COMES FROM Everything factual in BugBen is drawn from official public sources, and we link back to the original record so you can always check it yourself: • UK Parliament — bills, members, divisions and debates (https://www.parliament.uk and https://developer.parliament.uk) • legislation.gov.uk — the official text and status of Acts of Parliament (https://www.legislation.gov.uk) • UK Government and Parliament petitions (https://petition.parliament.uk) • The Electoral Commission — registered political donations (https://search.electoralcommission.org.uk) Parliamentary material is reproduced under the Open Parliament Licence. BugBen is independent and non-partisan. We present what Parliament does, without telling you what to think about it. DISCLAIMER: BugBen is an independent civic app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated on behalf of the UK Parliament, His Majesty's Government, or any government department or agency, and it does not represent any government entity. Voting requires a free account with a verified email address. Headline vote results always count voters aged 18 and over, with votes from younger users shown separately. Everything else is open to browse.

What's new

- Cleaner headers: inner screens now show the BugBen name instead of repeating the page title. Text and spacing adjust to your screen size, from small phones to tablets. - Videos now sit alongside your other tabs, so the tab bar (or sidebar on tablets) stays in view. - On a video, a new Bill details button takes you straight to the bill, next to Follow updates. - Clearer back buttons to get you home.
