votes in it last time. Reform, the Lib Dems and Labour can't win here, so your vote counts most behind the one challenger who can.

Pro-UK vote split

I'm thinking of voting…

A vote for Reform will split the pro-UK vote just like last time and let the SNP win.
What this election decides

See what's at stake

Your vote helps decide who speaks for you in Westminster, and the decisions that shape your job, your community and your future. Here's what's on the line in Aberdeen South.

OUR LOCAL JOBS & ENERGY INDUSTRY

The Oil and gas industry supports thousands of livelihoods. It may be yours, your family's or a neighbour's. With no new licences, work is already being lost while we import what we need from other countries. The decisions are taken in Westminster, so your vote helps protect those jobs and Britain's energy security.

YOUR VOICE,  NOT THE SNP'S

Time and again local people have made their views known on jobs, the city centre and local services, and been ignored. Your vote helps decide whether we have an MP focused on Aberdeen's priorities, or on another fight over independence.

Your vote could decide it

Last month, just 1,244 votes separated the top two parties, while over 10,000 went to parties that couldn't win here. The SNP took the seat. In a contest this close, how you use your vote will decide the result this time.

A PLAN FOR OIL & GAS

WHY YOUR VOTE MATTERS

Douglas Lumsden has committed to fight to:

  • End the ban on new licences that is closing off opportunity in the North Sea.
  • Scrap the windfall tax that is driving local investment, and jobs, away.
  • Axe the Carbon Tax that makes it cheaper to move jobs abroad than keep them here.
  • Deliver a real transition that creates new local jobs in Aberdeen, rather than just destroying the old ones.

But this plan will be ignored unless we stop the SNP in Aberdeen South. Only by lending Douglas your vote can you send the SNP a message they can't ignore.
