June Mummery

June Alison Mummery (born January 1964) is a British politician, and businesswoman, who has been Reform UK's Fisheries spokesperson since 2023. Since December 19, 2025, she has been a councillor for the Pakefield division of Suffolk County Council.

She was elected as a Brexit Party Member of the European Parliament (MEP) for the East of England constituency in the 2019 European parliamentary election, a role she held until the United Kingdom's withdrawal from the EU. Mummery is also the managing director of BFP Eastern Ltd, fish market auctioneers who operate in Lowestoft.

Fishing industry Mummery is a member of the Lowestoft Fish Market Alliance (fishermen group), and is the managing director of BFP Eastern Ltd (fish market auctioneers). She bought the latter company in 2004, which also operates Lowestoft's fish market. Mummery is a founder of Renaissance of East Anglian Fisheries (REAF), a partnership between the East Anglia fishing industry and local councils. She has campaigned with the pro-Brexit group Fishing for Leave. Before her involvement in the fishing industry, she was a sales director in the engineering sector.

Political career Mummery voted for Brexit in the 2016 United Kingdom European Union membership referendum. She supports Brexit as she thought that it will allow the United Kingdom to have far greater control of fishing in its waters despite having to relinquish fishing rights in foreign waters, and therefore provide an economic benefit. In the European Parliament, she was a member of the Committee on Transport and Tourism, and was part of the delegation for relations with the countries of South Asia.

Mummery was the Reform UK candidate for Lowestoft in 2024 United Kingdom general election. She came 3rd, with 24.7% of the vote.

On December 19th 2025, she stood in the Suffolk County Council Pakefield division by-election in December 2025 and was elected, making her the fifth Reform UK councillor in the council.
