Geoffrey Henry Cecil Bing CMG QC (24 July 1909 – 24 April 1977)[2] was a British barrister and politician who served as the Labour Member of Parliament for Hornchurch from 1945 to 1955.

[4][1] Always a radical and a member of the socialist left, Bing was active in the Haldane Society and the National Council for Civil Liberties.

During the Spanish Civil War, he joined the International Brigades as a journalist, barely avoiding capture at Bilbao.

A 1943 experiment with parachutes at the GSO2 Airborne Forces Development Centre left him disfigured and he bore the scars for many years.

[7] On the backbenches, Bing was, according to his Times obituary, "the unrestrained leader of a small group of radicals, never fully trusted by their colleagues and known as 'Bing Boys'".
