She is the eldest child and only daughter of The 3rd Viscount Stansgate and Nita Clarke (née Bowes), and the granddaughter of the late Labour MP Tony Benn. She was an unsuccessful Parliamentary candidate in both the 2010 and 2015 UK general elections. At the 2014 local elections, Benn was elected to the West Thornton ward of Croydon Borough Council.[5] Early and family lifeBenn was born in 1989 in Croydon, England, at the time that the Labour Party Conference of that year was being held.[6] As the daughter of a viscount, she is entitled to be styled as The Honourable. Benn is a quarter-Indian on her mother's side.[7][8] Benn claims that her first political experience was campaigning for her grandfather in his Chesterfield constituency in the 1992 general election at age two, and she joined the Labour Party at age 14.[8] Four generations of her family have served as British Members of Parliament (MP) – uncle Hilary Benn, grandfather Tony Benn, great-grandfather William Wedgwood Benn and great-great-grandfathers, Sir John Benn and Daniel Holmes.[8] EducationBenn attended Wallington High School for Girls[2][9] where she achieved 11 A* grades in her GCSEs.[10] She then studied Music, History and Latin for A level at St Olave's Grammar School,[8][11][12] and later read History and Politics at New College, Oxford.[2][3] CareerAfter university Benn joined the graduate training programme at UBS Investment Bank. She later joined the multi-asset sales team at the bank in London.[13][4] In 2016 she started working for UBS in New York.[21] {{as of|2018}}, Benn is a graduate research assistant at the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University.[14]Political careerCandidacy for ParliamentOn 12 September 2007, three weeks before her eighteenth birthday, Benn was selected as the Labour Party candidate for the West Sussex constituency of East Worthing and Shoreham at the 2010 general election.[15] The sitting MP, Conservative Tim Loughton, was defending a majority over Labour of 8,183 votes from the 2005 general election.[6] At the election, Benn finished in third place, 4,276 votes behind the Liberal Democrat candidate in second place, while Loughton increased his majority to 11,105 votes.[16] On 16 July 2014, Benn was selected as the Labour Party candidate for Croydon South for the 2015 general election.[17][18] She increased the Labour vote share by 4.8%, but was defeated by Conservative candidate Chris Philp.[19] Local councillorIn July 2013, Benn was selected as one of three Labour candidates for the ward of West Thornton on Croydon Borough Council in the 2014 local council elections.[20][21] In May 2014, she was elected top of the ballot with a majority of 1,777.[5] She resigned as a councillor in 2016 after accepting a job in New York.[22] Andrew Fisher complaintIn the autumn of 2015, Benn formally complained about Andrew Fisher, Jeremy Corbyn's head of policy, for supporting the Class War party at the general election earlier that year;[23] Fisher was suspended.[24] The Guardian also stated that 'Fisher Supporters' had pointed out that a page titled 'Emily Benn for Croydon South' on Facebook published a retweet suggesting Labour members who were '"disappointed" with Corbyn's "male dominated" leadership join the Women's Equality Party.[25] Electoral history2015 general election{{Election box begin ||title=General election 2015: Croydon South[26][27] }}{{Election box candidate with party link| |party = Conservative Party (UK) |candidate = Chris Philp |votes = 31,448 |percentage = 54.5 |change =+3.6 }}{{Election box candidate with party link| |party = Labour Party (UK) |candidate = Emily Benn |votes = 14,308 |percentage = 24.8 |change =+4.8 }}{{Election box candidate with party link| |party = United Kingdom Independence Party |candidate = Kathleen Garner |votes = 6,068 |percentage = 10.5 |change =+6.1 }}{{Election box candidate with party link| |party = Liberal Democrats (UK) |candidate = Gill Hickson |votes = 3,448 |percentage = 6.0 |change =-16.9 }}{{Election box candidate with party link| |party = Green Party of England and Wales |candidate = Peter Underwood |votes = 2,154 |percentage = 3.7 |change =+2.0 }}{{Election box candidate| |party = Putting Croydon First!
