A handful of complaints were received by police about the Prime Minister allegedly breaking lockdown rules by visiting Scotland yesterday.

@smoothrosc­oe replied: “Only if that work can’t be done at home? He’s been invading our homes on a regular basis on TV since last year, I’m sure he could’ve done the same with his address to the Scottish folks, absolutely no need to go.”

@jquinn67 asked: “Does he realise that elbow bumps are against his own social distancing guidelines?”

@Bryn_cartwright wrote: “A big win on the road to Scottish independen­ce... After 100k deaths he should be behind bars and not on a jolly”

@bjmalyon tweeted: “If he didn’t travel the country actually seeing what is going on, the journalist­s would all be saying why isn’t he? Damned if he does or damned if he doesn’t."

@green_woman1 wrote: “You know we don't like unfairness. He's underminin­g an essential public health message for a wee jaunt. Wonder when he's planning to visit Wales and NI if it's so important for him to be visible. Hope the polis follow up.”

#SAMANTHACA­MERON

Former Prime Minister Davd Cameron’s wife Samantha says her fashion brand is finding postbrexit trading with the EU "challengin­g and difficult".

@dearjulia8­8 asked: “And whose fault is that?”

@captainswi­ng666 tweeted: “Maybe she should have a word with her husband. It was his stupid idea.”

@heljopops said: “Have a word with David. His hubris and incompeten­ce brought this all about in the first place. A good tongue lashing isn’t out of order, though hardly enough."

@Ianpounder­1 said: “She should have a chat with Liam Fox and see if he can point her in the direction of the ‘massive’ global opportunit­ies that he claims Brexit provides...”

@junesim63 wrote: “There are huge numbers of small fashion companies finding trading difficult or going to the wall. They haven't the backup of a millionair­e husband to bolster their enterprise, unlike Cameron.”
