Fiona Bruce

In 2019 Bruce chaired an inquiry for the Conservative Party Human Rights Commission into prostitution, which concluded that replacing the present soliciting laws with laws making paying for sexual services a criminal offence is the most effective way of reducing the size of the prostitution market.

In 2018 Bruce said the government's decision not to ban anti-abortion protests outside clinics was a "win for mothers".

In February 2015, Bruce introduced an amendment to the Serious Crime Bill 2014 to make abortion on the grounds of the sex of the baby illegal. The amendment was rejected by 292 votes to 201.

She has been a member of the Scottish Affairs Select Committee since 2010.

She had unsuccessfully contested Warrington South at the 2005 general election, finishing second to the sitting Labour MP, Helen Southworth.

Bruce was elected in 2004 to Warrington Borough Council, on which she served as Executive Member for Finance from 2006–2009. She stepped down from the Council upon her election to Parliament in 2010.

She was awarded the title Small Businesswoman of the Year in 2003 and gained a place on the Conservative A-List in 2006.

She married Richard John Bruce in 1990, and they have two sons.

She was admitted as a solicitor in 1981, and has been senior partner of the firm, Fiona Bruce & Co, since its formation in 1988.
