Aberdeen South (UK Parliament constituency)

Common card · No. 475882

Aberdeen South is a burgh constituency of the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom which elects one Member of Parliament (MP) by the first-past-the-post system of election. The seat is currently held by Douglas Lumsden of the Scottish Conservatives, who won the seat in a 2026 by-election after Stephen Flynn of the Scottish National Party resigned upon his election as a Member of the Scottish Parliament. Flynn had served as the leader of the SNP in the House of Commons from December 2022 until 10 May 2026. The constituency was first used in the 1885 general election, but has undergone boundary changes since then. There was also an Aberdeen South Holyrood constituency, a constituency of the Scottish Parliament, created in 1999 with the boundaries of the Westminster constituency at that time. In 2011 the Scottish Parliament constituency of Aberdeen South was abolished and replaced with the Aberdeen South and North Kincardine constituency.
