[1] He was a steamship owner and steamship builder and also represented Stockton-on-Tees in the House of Commons as a Conservative.

The Ropner Baronetcy, of Thorp Perrow in the North Riding of the County of York, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 31 January 1952 for Leonard Ropner, [2] for many years Conservative Member of Parliament for Sedgefield and Barkston Ash.
