Sir George Evelyn Sinclair CMG OBE (6 November 1912 – 21 September 2005) was Conservative MP for Dorking, Surrey, 1964–79 [1].
Sinclair was a bright pupil at Abingdon School from 1923 to 1931,[2] and one of a group known as the 'Grundy boys' – named after the then headmaster.
[3] He served with the Royal West African Frontier Force during World War II.
Through his parliamentary tenure, he held a mixture of progressive and traditionalist views: he supported racial minorities' rights, abortion and protection of the environment, yet he also opposed decriminalisation of homosexuality, advocated for stricter immigration policies, criticized the abolition of capital punishment, and called for the United Kingdom to join the war in Vietnam.
He retired from Parliament in 1979, but continued in public life, and was especially involved with the Global Forum of Spiritual and Parliamentary Leaders on Human Survival.
