Colin Cameron (born 24 August 1933) is a Scottish lawyer and politician who served as a Minister and MP in Malawi in the early 1960s.
Born in Lanark in Scotland, Cameron attended Uddingston Grammar School and went on to gain a Bachelor of Law from the University of Glasgow in 1957.
His resignation was a protest against Banda seeking to reintroduce preventative detention, which he had previously criticised the British authorities for using.
[10] Cameron subsequently returned to legal practice, and represented former Minister of Education Henry Masauko Blasius Chipembere in a high court case against Banda.
[2] However, this resulted in him having to leave Malawi in November 1964 for his own safety, and he returned to Scotland to continue working as a lawyer,[11][3] establishing his own practice in Irvine.
