Dilke, Sir Charles Wentworth, 2o baronet
(4 sep. 1843, Londres, Inglaterra–26 ene. 1911, Londres).
Político británico. Fue elegido al parlamento en 1868, primero en calidad de radical y después como moderado. En 1882 se incorporó al gabinete de William E. Gladstone y era considerado como un futuro primer ministro. Cuando se encontraba en la cima de su carrera, en 1886, fue citado como cómplice del demandado en un juicio de divorcio por adulterio, que causó gran escándalo y arruinó su carrera. Negó la historia de la mujer, al tiempo que las pruebas acumuladas demostraron que gran parte del testimonio de ella había sido inventado. Regresó a la Cámara de los Comunes (1892–1911), donde propició una legislación laboral progresista y adquirió fama de experto militar.
