Ian Blackford

1. So Ian Blackford travelled back to Skye on 26 March, 3 days after lockdown. Oh but he's an MP they say. It's allowed, doh.

But if you look back at Parliament that week, the place was pretty deserted & attended by those who live in London.
2. His tweet says he's going back to Skye, but he'll be in isolation. He says he'll miss Ann. So are we to assume he wasn't going back to his primary residence? If he wasn't, he was breaching the rules. Isolation isn't the same as social distancing.
3. Then on 6 April he takes a photo of Loch Snizort on his way to an interview with Cuillin FM. He is around 30 miles from home, going for an interview.

Interviews can take place remotely, so this is non essential travel. People who can work from home should.
4. If the rules are to be applied fairly, they have to apply to all who breach them.
