Walter Harris Loveys (2 November 1920 – 7 March 1969), sometimes known as Bill Loveys, was a British farmer and Conservative Party politician.

Loveys was born in Westhampnett.^[1] He was educated at Lancing College but had no interest in a further academic career, as he had a job waiting for him on the 500-acre (2.0 km²) family farm. He built up a herd of pedigree Aberdeen Angus cattle.^[2]

Loveys married Muriel Helen Prior in 1944, and they had three children.^[2]

In 1953, Loveys was made Chairman of Chichester Conservative Association, and elected to West Sussex County Council.^[2] On the council he chaired the Agricultural Education Committee.^[2] When Lancelot Joynson-Hicks, MP for Chichester, inherited a peerage in 1958, Loveys was selected from 71 applicants to fight the byelection to replace him.^[2] The selection was somewhat controversial and some members of the Conservative Association were reported to be looking for an independent candidate to support instead, but such a candidate could not be found and Loveys duly won the seat.

In Parliament Loveys was not a prominent member. He was Honorary Secretary of the House of Commons Motor Club, and also had his farming experience acknowledged in the horticulture sub-committee of the Conservative private members' committee on Agriculture, Fisheries and Food.^[2] He had already announced his retirement due to health concerns when he died at his home in Flansham on 7 March 1969, aged 48.^[3]
