A Conservative MP’s tweet showing a picture of popular London restaurant German Doner Kebab - soon to come to Glasgow - has attracted a mass of interest on Twitter.

Greg Hands, the MP for Chelsea and Fulham, tweeted a picture of the front of Doner Kebab’s outlet on Fulham Broadway.

He asked: “How long before we have German Fish & Chips?”

But Twitter was quick to school the MP that the original kebabs were from Germany.

Some asked rhetorical questions of their own.

Elsewhere, people asked what point the politician was trying to make, given the backdrop of Brexit and trade deals.

Hands later said people were “seeking a wider putative meaning” to his tweet and described how it had “kept literally thousands of lefties occupied”.

He offered no clarity as to the point of his tweet.

The chain Doner Kebab has more than 40 branches around the world after it was established in Berlin in 1989. It opened a branch in Leicester last week.

The company has plans for major expansion with branches set to open in Glasgow, Edinburgh and Dundee in the near future, according to its website.

The site also states its kebabs oare “nutritionally sound gourmet food experience that contains virtually no preservatives or additives and can be consumed day or night”.

As for a German take on fish and chips – nom nom, says Twitter.
