Biography

Navendu Prabhat Mishra is a British politician. He became the Labour Party MP for Stockport at the UK general election in 2019.

Early life

He is of Indian ancestry; his mother is from Gorakhpur and his father is from Kanpur, both in Uttar Pradesh.

Career

Before entering politics, Mishra worked as a shop-floor trade unionist in Stockport. Mishra later became an industrial organiser for Unison, in which time he helped to organise care workers in precarious employment across Greater Manchester.

He served as a member of the Labour Party's National Executive Committee, its highest decision-making body, from September 2018 until December 2019. As he was elected as one of the nine representatives for Constituency Labour Parties, Mishra was automatically ineligible to remain a member of the NEC upon his election as a Member of Parliament.

Mishra unsuccessfully contested the seat of Hazel Grove in 2017, but achieved Labour's highest ever vote share in that constituency, of 20.5%.

Mishra is a member of Labour's Socialist Campaign Group.
