Peter Temple-Morris, Baron Temple-Morris (born 12 February 1938) is a Welsh politician in British politics. He was elected as a Conservative Member of Parliament for Leominster in 1974.
Temple-Morris was suspended from the party in 1997 because he had "repeatedly and publicly questioned his continued commitment to the Conservative Party".
