Sir Raymond Greene, 2nd Baronet

Sir (Walter) Raymond Greene, 2nd Baronet, DSO (4 August 1869 – 24 August 1947) was a British Conservative politician.

He was the second son of Edward Greene (later Sir Edward Greene, 1st Baronet) of Nether Hall, Suffolk and Anne Elizabeth née Royds of Haughton, Staffordshire. Following education at Eton College and Oriel College, Oxford, he entered politics at the 1895 general election as member of parliament for the Western or Chesterton Division of Cambridgeshire.

He held a commission as Lieutenant in the Suffolk Yeomanry from 1893, and left with his regiment in January 1900 to serve in the Second Boer War in South Africa. The following month he was on 7 February commissioned a Lieutenant in the Imperial Yeomanry. He was promoted to Captain in the Suffolk Yeomanry on 14 October 1900.

The 1900 general election was held while he was on active service in South Africa, and he was re-elected in his absence. He lost the seat at the next election in 1906, when the Liberal Party came to power in an electoral landslide.
