[Douglas Lumsden MSP @DLumsden_MSP]

On 18 June, we have a chance to send a pro-oil and gas candidate to Westminster.

Vote Scottish Conservative in Aberdeen South to beat the SNP and stand up for our energy industry.

[Scottish Conservatives @ScotTories]

The SNP and Labour’s opposition to drilling in the North Sea is killing the sector and costing 1,000 jobs every month.

Voters in Aberdeen South can send them a message by backing pro-oil & gas candidate Douglas Lumsden on June 18.

@PhilipHensher I think mine would be similarly ungrand. I would say that the writer who has given me the most pleasure and whom I reread most often is Michael Innes.

[Andrew Bowie MP @AndrewBowie_MP]

👍 Great to have Kemi back in the North East today!
💪 She gets the Oil and Gas Industry. She gets Aberdeen and she is fighting to get Scottish Conservative Douglas Lumsden into Parliament!
🗳️ Let’s make it happen on the 18th June!

[Scottish Conservatives @ScotTories]

Oil and gas workers know @KemiBadenoch and @RussellFindlay1 have their back.

On June 18, voters in Aberdeen South can back @DLumsden_MSP and the Scottish Conservatives to Get Britain Drilling again.

[Sam Taylor @staylorish]

Awkward. Speaking in parliament in 2022, John Swinney railed against the economic illiteracy of people suggesting he had the right to spend ringfenced money on other things.

[Scottish Express @ScotExpress]

Under Sturgeon and Swinney, the SNP became a byword for secrecy and centralised control @Rachael2Win https://t.co/N4UUZMSqGP

BREAKING: The Labour Party.

[Scottish Conservatives @ScotTories]

Scotland in the Union have recognised that Aberdeen South is a two-horse race between the Scottish Conservatives and the SNP.

Pro-UK voters should unite behind Douglas Lumsden on 18 June to beat the SNP.

[Scotland in Union @scotlandinunion]

Scotland in Union is backing the Scottish Conservatives in the Aberdeen South by-election as the tactical vote to beat the SNP.

@vbspurs That's a real (if technical) word. It's the value in farads of the capacity of a system to store electrical charge. It was the answer in a Listener or Spectator crossword clue once, which I why I remember it.

[Mark McLaughlin @MarkMcLaugh1in]

💬 @JohnSwinney today admitted there weren't "adequate controls" to prevent Murrell's thieving.

"The systems in place shouldn't have been able to be abused but they were."

I reminded him last week he said the systems did not fail.

Response: "DON'T PUT WORDS IN MY MOUTH!"

Sturgeon's refusal to give a witness statement to SNP fraud probe police came after she was told she would not be prosecuted in 2025. Colin Beattie, the former SNP treasurer who remains an MSP, also refused a similar request, sources revealed https://t.co/8i58suLcTz

EXCL: Nicola Sturgeon refused to give witness statement to SNP fraud probe detectives despite publicly claiming she would fully cooperate with police. By @conor_matchett https://t.co/XHjtz2pwyo

[Scottish Conservatives @ScotTories]

🚨 NEW: Major pro-UK tactical vote guide says @DLumsden_MSP is the best vote to beat the SNP in Aberdeen South.

On 18th June, vote Scottish Conservative and let's Get Britain Drilling.

[The Spectator @spectator]

For all of the squabbling between Reform and Restore, the Right's best chance at a by-election win on 18 June may not be in Makerfield, but 300-odd miles further north – in Aberdeen. The beneficiary wouldn't be Nigel Farage or Rupert Lowe, but Kemi Badenoch's Conservatives.

It's unsurprising that this contest has been largely overlooked. My Westminster colleagues treat the suburbs of Manchester as being almost unfathomably distant, so the North Sea coast seems like an alien planet. But Aberdeen is also a city used to being ignored.

A wee bit of drizzle not dampening our Scottish Conservative enthusiasm in Aberdeen today.

ONLY Douglas Lumsden can beat the SNP on June 18 and stand up for oil and gas.

[alexmassie @alexmassie]

Well, OK.

[Scottish Conservatives @ScotTories]

Only Douglas Lumsden and the Scottish Conservatives can beat the SNP in Aberdeen South.

On 18 June, a vote for Douglas is the smart choice for pro-UK voters.
