Your local Labour Party
Bishop Auckland
The Bishop Auckland Constituency Labour Party covers western County Durham, including Bishop Auckland, Barnard Castle, Shildon, Crook and the rural areas of Teesdale and Weardale. Our communities have been shaped by mining, railways, farming and market towns, creating strong traditions of working people standing together.
While heavy industry has declined, Labour values remain strong, and the party won back the seat in 2024. Today, most jobs are in manufacturing, public services, retail, care, agriculture and tourism, though wages and opportunities still lag behind the national average despite new regeneration and heritage investment.
Bishop Auckland CLP stands for fairness, opportunity and security for working people, strong public services, and communities having a real say in their future. Our focus is on secure work, good local services and ensuring regeneration benefits local people.
