## Resource

SNP makes a surprise comeback in Aberdeenshire, winning a key council seat in Peterhead South and Cruden after a by-election triggered by the death of former councillor George Hall. Angus Matheson, the SNP candidate, edged out rivals from the Conservatives, Reform UK, and other parties with 741 first preference votes — a victory that signals a potential shift in local governance and could ripple through community decisions. With just over 22% turnout, the win underscores the power of local elections to reshape political landscapes.
