Paddy Wilson (1933-1973) was a Northern Ireland politician who was killed by John White, a member of the Ulster Freedom Fighters (UFF).

Wilson, a member of the predominantly Catholic Social Democratic and Labour Party (SDLP), was a Senator in the Northern Ireland Parliament before its suspension in 1972, and a Belfast city councillor. He was hacked to death and had his throat slit in one of the most brutal murders of Northern Ireland's 'Troubles' along with his Protestant secretary, Irene Andrews who had her breasts cut off in the attack.
