Prime Minister David Cameron's former director of communications Andy Coulson has been arrested by police and charged with perjury.

Mr Coulson, 44, has now been released, after being detained at his London home at 06:30 BST by Strathclyde Police.

He arrived at a police station in Glasgow shortly before 15:30 BST.

Mr Coulson was formally arrested on Wednesday evening as part of an investigation into evidence at the trial of former MSP Tommy Sheridan.

He left the police station at 21.30 BST on Wednesday evening.

A Crown Office spokesman said there was no legal obligation for Coulson to stay in Scotland, and he was free to return to his home in London.

Isn't that bloody typical of the Scots police.  They drag Coulson out of bed at 6am, drag him up to Glasgow and then dump him out on the streets at 9.30pm.  What a bunch of shits!  It's not as if he lives in the Gorbals or somewhere just as desirable!
