Jonathan Bullock FRSA (born 3 March 1963) is an English politician. He was a Member of the European Parliament (MEP) for the East Midlands constituency until the United Kingdom's withdrawal from the EU on 31 January 2020.[2] He was third on the UKIP list for that constituency in the 2014 European election, and became an MEP on 1 August 2017, succeeding Roger Helmer. He was re-elected in 2019 for the Brexit Party.

Bullock was previously a councillor and member of the cabinet on Kettering Borough Council and a Conservative parliamentary and European candidate. He resigned from the Conservative Party in September 2012 to join UKIP,[3] but left in December 2018[4] and joined the Brexit Party four months later.[5]
