One of Scotland’s largest newspapers is asking its readers if the country should follow Australia’s example by introducing “COVID internment camps.” Yes, really. The question was posed via the Daily Record’s official Facebook page.

The vast majority of respondents to the question reacted with horror.
“What a disgrace of a question??? Surely the obvious answer to should there be INTERNMENT CAMPS always be a resounding NO!!!!!” said one. “This headline is an all time low,” remarked another. “Yes. We need protection from anyone who thinks this is a good idea. Put them there and some people at this news rag can lead the way,” commented another.

Scotland is currently under COVID restrictions that saw nightclubs being closed down for weeks and people being urged to avoid seeing their loved ones over Christmas.
This led to tens of thousands of Scots flooding over the border to England, which imposed less strict rules, in order to celebrate New Years Eve.
