Thomas Hunter (died 11 March 1932) was an Irish Sinn Féin politician.
He was elected as a Sinn Féin MP for the Cork North East constituency in the 1918 general election. In January 1919, Sinn Féin MPs refused to recognise the Parliament of the United Kingdom and instead assembled at the Mansion House in Dublin as a revolutionary parliament called Dáil Éireann, though Hunter did not attend as he was in prison.
