Following the close of nominations, Manchester City Council have confirmed those who will stand. 

The list below is correct at the time of writing and is ordered alphabetically by surname.

Sir Oink A-Lot (The Official Monster Raving Loony Party)

Jackie Pearcey (Liberal Democrats)

The seat was last contested at the general election in July 2024, when Mr Gwynne secured a Labour majority of more than 13,000.
