Peter Standing Rogers (2 January 1940 – 6 January 2025) was a Welsh politician, farmer and magistrate who was a Member of the Welsh Assembly (AM) for the North Wales Region from 1999 to 2003, representing the Welsh Conservative Party, and an Isle of Anglesey County Councillor from 2004 to 2022 - as an independent from 2005 onward.
Rogers left the Assembly in 2003, after being placed 7th on the Welsh Conservatives' North Wales regional list. He subsequently sought selection as the candidate for Ynys Môn in the 2005 general election, but left the Welsh Conservatives in 2005 after a protracted and disrupted selection contest. He would go on to seek election to both the UK Parliament and National Assembly for Wales as an independent.
