Linda Whetstone (née Fisher; 17 November 1942 – 15 December 2021) was a British libertarian and free market campaigner, and also a significant figure in British equestrian sport.[1][2]

Whetstone was born in Binfield, Berkshire on 17 November 1942. Her father was Antony Fisher, founder of the Institute of Economic Affairs. She gained a degree by correspondence in Economics from the University of London.[1]

She was the first Chairman of the British Equestrian Federation council, and was Chairman of British Dressage from 2018.

With Nouh El Harmouzi she co-edited the book "Islamic Foundations of a Free Society", which was published in Dari, Indonesian, Arabic, French and Persian. She also produced a CD containing works by libertarian thinkers, over 150,000 copies of which were distributed in more than 60 countries.[1]

She was married to Francis Whetstone, a Lloyd's underwriter, and they had three children, including public relations executive Rachel Whetstone. Linda Whetstone died suddenly whilst attending a Liberty Forum in Miami, Florida, on 15 December 2021, at the age of 79.[1]
