Bio Roger Sweetman was an Irish Sinn Féin politician and barrister. He had an appearance in Wimbledon in 1902.

He was elected as a Sinn Féin MP for the Wexford North constituency at the 1918 general election. In January 1919, Sinn Féin MPs refused to recognise the Parliament of the United Kingdom and instead assembled at the Mansion House in Dublin as a revolutionary parliament called Dáil Éireann.

In the Dáil debate of 25 January 1921 on "Truce negotiations", Sweetman was alone in disapproving of the conduct of the Irish War of Independence, and particularly the events of Bloody Sunday. He did not contest the 1921 elections. He formed part of the Sweetman political family in the 20th century. His cousin John Sweetman, was an Irish Parliamentary Party MP from 1892 to 1895, and second president of Sinn Féin. His son Edmund Sweetman was a Senator from 1948 to 1951.
