Boris Johnson is set for a Valentine’s Day visit to Edinburgh during a stop on his ‘levelling up’ tour of the UK amid a scandal-hit period for Downing Street.
The Prime Minister felt little love from the Capital on a previous trip when a crowd booed and heckled the Tory leader on the steps of Bute House as he met with Nicola Sturgeon.
Johnson is hopeful this whirlwind tour of Scotland and the North West of England will help him avoid a fine after the PM was issued with a questionnaire by metropolitan police investigators in London over his part in alleged lockdown-breaching gatherings.
