Graphic from a news article about Trump's comments on leaving Scotland: "Swinney spoke with Trump at a dinner for about two hours on Monday night. The first minister said he made the case for granting Scotch whisky an exemption from US trade tariffs. However, Trump told journalists on the presidential aircraft that the pair "did not really discuss" tariffs during the meeting. But he said he had "a lot of respect" for Swinney. Unprompted, he continued: "I didn't have a lot of respect for the woman that preceded him. "I thought she was terrible as a first minister of Scotland. But I think John is doing a very good job as first minister."
A still from a recent episode of South Park, in which a waiter is offering Donald Trump a tray of Coca Cola and burgers. The waiter's face has been replaced with John Swinney's. The burgers have been replaced with a pile of money.
Screenshot of a social media post from the Prime Minister's office, @10DowningStreet. The text reads "We're taking action to stop migrants working illegally as food delivery drivers". The black and white image shows a silhouette of a cyclist with a food delivery box on their back. The text in the image reads "DELIVERED BY WHO? Our new agreement means the government will share asylum accommodation locations with Deliveroo, Just Eat and Uber Eats. So they'll know if riders are staying there and can take action."
