Sean Lee Woodcock is a British Labour Party politician who has served as Member of Parliament for Banbury since 2024.[1][2]

Early life and career

Woodcock was born at Horton General Hospital in Banbury. He is the eldest of five siblings. He attended Wroxton C of E Primary School, followed by The Warriner School.[3] He received a Bachelor of Arts degree in History from Reading University, and a Master of Arts from Birmingham University.[4]

Woodcock went on to work in social housing and community investment before becoming a councillor on Cherwell District and Banbury Town councils in May 2012.[5] Following this, Woodcock became Mayor of Banbury from 2014 to 2015,[6] becoming the youngest mayor on record.[5] He was the Labour parliamentary candidate for Banbury in both the 2015 and 2017 general elections.[5]

Parliamentary career

In December 2023, Woodcock was chosen as the Labour candidate for the Banbury constituency in the 2024 election.[7] He gained the seat from incumbent Victoria Prentis, who had represented the constituency since 2015 for the Conservative Party and was serving as Attorney General for England and Wales at the time of her defeat.[8] He is the first Labour MP to be elected in the constituency since its creation and first non-Conservative MP since 1922.

He made his maiden speech in the House of Commons on 17 October 2024.[9]
