Former City Council leader Barney Crockett has been voted in as Aberdeen’s new Lord Provost.
The Labour member was voted in by 23 votes to 21, while one councillor chose to abstain.
Meanwhile, councillor Tom Mason had been selected as Depute Lord Provost by 22 votes to 19 with four abstentions.
The decision will pave the way for a Labour and Conservative coalition with independent members.
Speaking after the announcement, Mr Crockett said: “No one could be more proud than I am today.”
During the debate before the vote, SNP group leader Stephen Flynn said: “If it were me being put forward by the Conservatives, I would feel sick.”
“The people will not forget this betrayal,” he added.
