Robinson Souttar (23 October 1848 – 4 April 1912)[1] was a British Liberal Party politician.
He first stood for Parliament at the 1892 general election, when he was an unsuccessful candidate in the Conservative-held Oxford seat.[2]
He was elected at the 1895 general election as the member of parliament (MP) for Dumfriesshire, defeating the sitting Liberal Unionist MP William Maxwell by a majority of only 13 votes.[2] Maxwell regained the seat in 1900, and Souttar did not stand again.[2]
Souttar was an advocate for peace during the Boer War speaking at a Peace movement meeting at Exeter Hall in March 1900 alongside Lloyd George.[3]
