Parliamentary career

He has been an MP since the 1997 election, and is seen as an unquestioning loyalist to the Labour government who has rarely rebelled against the party whip at Westminster.

He served as Parliamentary Private Secretary (PPS) to Lord Williams of Mostyn from 2001 to 2002. He then became PPS to David Miliband at the Department of Education and Skills and then the Cabinet Office. After the 2005 general election he was made a Government whip.

On taking office Gordon Brown appointed Cawsey to be a Vice-Chair of the Labour Party with responsibility for animal welfare.

Personal life

He married Linda Mary Kirman in July 1987. They have a son (born May 1993) and two daughters (born January 1988 and April 1997), and reside in Winterton. He is a musician and has performed in local glam rock tribute bands, and sings and plays bass guitar in the group MP4, which is composed of four MPs.

In the late 1990s he had cancer which he has now overcome.
