What it does
The UK Parliament Members API gives data about Members of the House of Commons and the House of Lords: names, parties, constituencies, contact details, roles, interests and voting records, for example to look up the MP for a constituency. Responses are JSON, with an OpenAPI description. Free, no key needed.
