Christopher John Mullin, known as Chris Mullin, (born 12 December, 1947 in Chelmsford, Essex) is an UK Labour politician, currently the member of Parliament for the English constituency of Sunderland South. He read Law at the University of Hull.

Before being elected as an MP, he was a journalist working with the well-respected ITV documentary programme World in Action and had campaigned for the release of the Birmingham Six, a notorious miscarriage of justice. He was also editor of the Tribune newspaper (1982-84).

Mullin was first elected MP in 1987, and has been returned at every subsequent election to 2005. His constituency has been the first to declare in every general election since 1992 (1992, 1997, 2001, and 2005). Mullin often jokes about being the only MP for a few minutes and muses about forming a government. His wife is of Vietnamese birth and they have two daughters.

He was a member of the Socialist Campaign Group, Secretary of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Vietnam and Chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Cambodia, Member of the Home Affairs Select Committee (1992–97), Chairman of the Home Affairs Select Committee (1997–99). Despite his criticism of the government, he was a junior minister from 1999 to 2001, as Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, DETR and Minister of State, Department for International Development (2001).

He returned to government in June 2003, as a Parliamentary Under-Secretary at the Foreign Office, but after the 2005 election again returned to the backbenches. Before the Labour victory of 1997, Mullin had attained a reputation for campaigning on behalf of victims of injustice and opposition to the curtailing of civil rights. His campaigning stance had to change while a minister because of the collective responsibility of government. Recently, however, his vote against the government's proposal for 90-days detention without trial for terrorist suspects - as one of 49 Labour rebels - seems to indicate a re-emergence of his civil libertarian instincts. Coupled with his criticism of the government's commitment to its expressed policy on Africa further ministerial promotion seems unlikely.

He played with the Warriors from the 1985-86 until the 1996-97 seasons. Thereafter, Mullin played with the Indiana Pacers from 1997 until the 1999-2000 season. He retired after the 2000-01 season, playing for his original team, the Warriors.
