Clive Anthony Lewis (born 11 September 1971) is a British Labour politician who has been the Member of Parliament (MP) for Norwich South since 2015. Lewis was a candidate for Leader of the Labour Party in the 2020 leadership election. Lewis is aligned with Mainstream, a network launched in September 2025 and whose founding statement he signed. He previously served as vice-president of the National Union of Students, worked as a TV reporter for BBC News and served as an infantry officer with the Army Reserve. Lewis served a three-month tour of duty in Afghanistan in 2009. Lewis became shadow defence secretary in June 2016, and shadow business secretary in October 2016. Lewis left the Shadow Cabinet in 2017 in protest over the Labour Party's decision to whip its MPs into voting to trigger Article 50, but re-joined the front bench a year later as shadow minister for sustainable economics. He stood in the 2020 Labour Party leadership election, but did not receive the required 22 parliamentarian nominations, and withdrew. Lewis has written extensively about the climate crisis, race, and democracy. He has argued that Britain is built on forgetting its imperial history, stating that this "forgetting" is crucial to the "British state – the Union, an unwritten constitution, and even our voting system".
