Twickenham by-election, 1934

The Twickenham by-election, 1934 was a parliamentary by-election held on 22 June 1934 for the British House of Commons constituency of Twickenham in Middlesex.

The seat had become vacant when the constituency's Conservative Member of Parliament (MP), Hylton Murray-Philipson, died on 24 May 1934, aged 31. He had held the seat since a by-election in 1932.

The result was a victory for the Conservative candidate Alfred Critchley, who had stood for the Empire Free Trade Crusade and the United Empire Party in the Islington East by-election, 1931 and as a Conservative at the 1929 general election.
