Donald Trump has branded Nicola Sturgeon a 'terrible first minister' as he reignited his bitter feud with the ex-SNP leader.

The US President made the comments on Air Force One as he travelled back to Washington DC following his five-day visit to Scotland.

During his stay, he had a two-hour dinner on Monday with current First Minister John Swinney, alongside Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer.

Mr Swinney, who also met Mr Trump on Tuesday morning, said he had used the talks to push the US President to exempt Scotch from US tariffs.

Speaking to reporters on his flight home, Mr Trump was asked if he offered to drop the levy on the drink.
