Kennedy Leitch, 44, from Balfron.

Kennedy Leitch, 44, from Balfron described the reports as "indefensible".

"It's indefensible, nobody can defend it."

Chris Opoku, 20, from Toryglen added: "I don't think it was fair at all because of course people were locked down, had to go through a really lonely Christmas and all that. 

"So for us to limit and make the sacrifices, the people in leadership should also limit and make sacrifices."
