Montgomeryshire , Islwyn and Cynon Valley will go. Anglesey will join Bangor , Caerphilly is linked with the north of Cardiff. Rhondda, Pontypridd and a Heads of the Valleys seat share Cynon Valley.
Inevitably, some MPs will end competing with colleagues. The Conservatives Guto Bebb and David Jones in north Wales coast colleagues Simon Hart and Stephen Crabb in Pembrokeshire. Labour’s Geraint Davies and Martin Caton, Hywel Francis and Huw Irranca-Davies. Plaid Cymru, it’s Hywel Williams and Elfyn Llwyd who’ll have to sort out a seat.Ad what about that Heads of The Valleys seat

Doubt anyone will miss Bebb in Aberconwy, he went to ground as soon as the election was out of the way, Jones on the other hand has been very visible for many years along the North Wales coast.
Does that mean Baroness Clwyd will enter the House of Lords in three different pieces ?
Sorry, I laughed so much, a bit of wee came out.
Hilarious - the slow death of the Labour party and Britishness is happenning before our very eyes.
The end of the Labour gravy-train is near.
To be fair to Guto Bebb - he's taken all the flack on Welsh language news and phone ins on behalf of the Tories (and LibDems) on cuts to S4C. He's effectively been a punch-bag, which David Jones hasn't had to be.
He's handled himself quite well.
What an absolute and literal carve-up.
A tiny piece of north Cardiff is linked with Caerffili to create 'Caerffili and Cardiff North', but what has Senghenydd got in common with Llanishen?
Yet parts of north Swansea - Llangyfelach, Penllegaer and Gorseinon - are in Llanelli! While the Swansea Valley from Clydach to Ystalyfera is in Neath! The proposed Neath constituency also takes in parts of east Swansea such as Glais and Birchgrove.
This proposal, that takes chunks off Swansea while enlarging Cardiff, will make many Swansea people feel that their city is being insulted, yet again.
Merthyr Tydfil and the Cynon Valley are not a marketing slogan, Heads of the Valleys get a grip, obviously the people who put this together don't know Wales very well.
Caerphilly and Cardiff North another strange one, its has gone from being one safe Labour and a marginal to being a safe Labour seat.
Some of the Mid Wales seats geographical size are scary and tieing Ynys Mon to the main land at Gwynedd's expense.
what's the betting the old Labour dinosaurs will survive the cull while the newer Labour MP's will lose out?
It looks like Dai Basra will survive the cut mores the pity, Merthyr needs a better MP and this wont help matters.
It's spelt "losers"
I wonder if Owen Smith or Huw Irranca are looking like losing can Merthyr have one of those Dai basra is a waste of bloody space
