The Conservatives have won their first Scottish by-election in nearly 60 years with a “seismic” victory in the Aberdeen South by-election.
Douglas Lumsden won the Aberdeen South seat thanks largely to a tactical vote, according to Tory sources, securing 14,308 votes.
The SNP did hold Arbroath and Broughty Ferry with Lara Bird taking the seat vacated by Stephen Gethins who, like Flynn, quit Westminster for Holyrood
