Patrick Chrestien Gordon Walker, Baron Gordon-Walker, was a British Labour Party politician. He was a Member of Parliament for nearly 30 years and twice a cabinet minister. He lost his Smethwick parliamentary seat at the 1964 general election in a bitterly-racial campaign conducted in the wake of local factory closures.
