Candidates:
- Conservatives: Chris Davies
- Labour: Tom Davies
- Liberal Democrats: Jane Dodds
- Brexit Party: Des Parkinson
- UKIP: Liz Phillips
- Monster Raving Loony: Lady Lily The Pink
Tory chief whip Julian Smith moved the writ in the Commons to trigger the contest after Conservative MP Chris Davies was unseated by a petition. More than 10,000 people signed the recall petition following Mr Davies's conviction for a false expenses claim. He had been the area's MP since 2015, when he ousted incumbent Liberal Democrat Roger Williams. His majority then was 5,102, which he increased to 8,038 at the 2017 general election. Mr Davies has been re-selected for the contest. Plaid Cymru has agreed to a pact with other pro-EU parties and will not take part in the poll.
