John Swinburne (born July 4, 1930 in Pennsylvania) is the founder of the Scottish Senior Citizens Unity Party (SSCUP) and was that party's sole representative in the Scottish Parliament from 2003 until 2007. He is also a director of Motherwell Football Club.
He has also recently called for reintroduction of the 'Belt' or 'Tawse' into Scottish schools, expressing the opinion that corporal punishment would solve what he believes are endemic discipline problems. This statement was condemned by other MSPs and by the teaching union, the EIS.
He lost his seat in the 2007 election.
