As an Inverness native (though not of this ward), I'm not hugely surprised by the SNP's collapse in Inverness South. The incumbent SNP councillor is something of a maverick, at times threatening to leave the party (and on at least one occasion actually did for a while). Whilst personal votes aren't what they once were in the Highlands (especially in Inverness), he's been very well-known and popular in the area for ages, and I very much suspect his popularity has been inflating the SNP figure for years now.
Anyway, happy enough the Independent won a seat at his third attempt. Seems likes a decent bloke, though I've got no love whatsoever for the SNP-IND coalition that run this place.
