Aberdeenshire North and Moray East is a constituency of the House of Commons in the UK Parliament.[1] Following the completion of the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, it was first contested at the 2024 general election.
The seat is currently held by Seamus Logan of the Scottish National Party since the 2024 general election.
Following a significant illness and period in hospital, David Duguid, the incumbent MP for the constituency's predecessor Banff and Buchan, was informed that he had not been selected as the Conservative candidate on the evening of 5 June 2024. This was in spite of being previously selected by his local constituency association and indicating he was fit to stand.[2]
Although he had previously said that he was stepping down from Westminster, Scottish Conservatives leader Douglas Ross announced that he would be the candidate on the morning of the 6 June, with nomination deadline falling on 7 June.[3]
Labour candidate Andy Brown was suspended on 19 June 2024 following allegations that he questioned Russia's involvement in the Salisbury poisonings and downplayed the level of antisemitism in the Labour party.[4]
