Percy Daines (29 November 1902 – 3 March 1957) was a British insurance agent and politician. He served as a Labour and Co-operative Party Member of Parliament for East Ham North from the 1945 general election until his death, and was on the national committee of the Co-operative Party.

==Insurance agent==
Daines' early career was spent as a fireman on the railways. In 1921〔Speaking in the House of Commons on 21 March 1946, Daines had declared he had 18 years of experience as an insurance agent; given that he left in 1939 to fight in the war, this statement also fixes the start of his occupation.〕 he became an insurance official working for the Co-operative Insurance Society; as such he was a member of both the National Union of Railwaymen and the National Union of Distributive and Allied Workers.〔M. Stenton and S. Lees, "Who's Who of British MPs" Vol. IV (Harvester Press, 1981), p. 81.〕 Daines married his wife Lilian in 1923.〔"Decree Nisi against Mr. Percy Daines", ''The Times'', 18 October 1951, p. 2.〕
During the Second World War, Daines served with the Royal Engineers.〔"Who Was Who", A & C Black.〕 He also became a member of Enfield Urban District Council.〔"The Times House of Commons, 1945", p. 50.〕 His wife was also a councillor in Enfield and later became chairman of the council.〔"The Times House of Commons, 1950", p. 105.〕
