Anthony Edward Timpson CBE (born 26 December 1973) is a British Conservative Party politician who was elected as the Member of Parliament (MP) for Eddisbury in Cheshire at the 2019 general election. He was previously MP for neighbouring Crewe and Nantwich, winning a 2008 by-election and retaining the seat until the 2017 general election when he lost to the Labour Party candidate, Laura Smith, by 48 votes. Timpson was Minister of State for Children and Families after the 2015 general election, having been promoted from Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State at the Department for Education.

He was educated at Uppingham School and Durham University (Hatfield College), where he studied Politics before converting to Law. He became a barrister in

1998. From 1999, he has practised in Chester as a family law barrister.

In July 2007, Timpson was selected as the Conservative candidate for the Crewe and Nantwich constituency, an area which had been represented by the Labour MP Gwyneth Dunwoody since 1974. After Dunwoody died in April 2008, a by-election was called for May 2008. In the run-up to the by-election, Timpson was the target of a “toff” campaign by Labour, trying to paint him as “a rich man” who would not “understand the problems that people face day-to-day” in contrast to their candidate, Gwyneth Dunwoody’s daughter Tamsin Dunwoody. The Conservative campaign focused on local issues, such as crime and antisocial behaviour, closure of post offices and problems at Leighton Hospital, where two women in labour were turned away, as well as national issues – referring to Dunwoody as “Gordon Brown’s candidate” and capitalising on dissatisfaction with the Labour government, in particular the removal of the 10% tax rate.
