Leo McKinstry (born 1962) is a British journalist and author. Born in Belfast, Northern Ireland, McKinstry graduated from Cambridge University. He writes regularly for several newspapers in the United Kingdom, including the ''Daily Mail'', ''Daily Express'', and ''The Sunday Telegraph''. He often writes about issues relating to immigration. His books include a biography of the Victorian Prime Minister, Lord Rosebery. In the early 1990s McKinstry was a Labour councillor in Islington and worked as a parliamentary aide to Labour politician Harriet Harman, later criticising what he described as her "dangerous gospel of feminist fascism". Losing his seat on Islington council in 1994, he was working for Labour front bencher Doug Henderson when he announced the following year, via an article in ''The Spectator'', that he no longer supported the party.〔(Vilified Labour defector vents his spleen in print – 17 years on - Leo McKinstry reveals all to Spectator magazine )〕 Subsequently he was a regular columnist in both the ''Daily Mail'' and the ''Daily Express''.
