Sir Robert Bird, 2nd Baronet
Sir Robert Bland Bird, 2nd Baronet KBE (20 September 1876 – 20 November 1960) was a Conservative Party politician in the United Kingdom.
== Biography ==

He was elected as Member of Parliament (MP) for Wolverhampton West at a by-election in March 1922 following the death of his father Sir Alfred, who had been the constituency's MP since January 1910.
Robert Bird was re-elected at the next three general elections, but was defeated at the 1929 general election by the Labour Party candidate William Brown. Bird regained the seat in 1931, and held it until he stood down at the 1945 general election.
Bird had succeeded to his father's baronetcy, and also succeeded him as chairman of the family's business Alfred Bird and Sons, manufacturing chemists. The company had been established by his grandfather Alfred Bird, who invented both baking powder and custard powder.
He was invested as a Chevalier in the French Légion d'honneur in 1947 and as an Officer of the Order of Leopold (Belgium) (in recognition of services
rendered to Belgian interests during the war) in 1951. In the New Year Honours in 1954, he was made a Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire (KBE), "for political and public services".
