More than three thousand people have signed a petition calling for Bicester Village to temporarily close after hundreds of people were pictured at the shopping complex.

Pictures on social media appear to show people struggling to maintain social distancing at the designer retail outlet in Bicester, Oxfordshire.

The petition is calling for it to be closed until changes are made.

Value Retail, which runs the complex, has been contacted for comment.

Meanwhile non-essential shops remain closed in Scotland, however the first minister is expected to provide an update on Thursday.

A quarter of Scots attribute health problems to their work, a new survey has found.

Some 30% of respondents to the YouGov survey for CIPD Scotland, the professional body for human resources, said work has a negative impact on their mental health, while 25% said it has worsened their physical health.

The CIPD's Marek Zemanik said the polling was conducted before the Covid-19 outbreak and said "some of the measures around well-being and job security have already deteriorated since the pandemic".

He added: "We need to ensure that job quality and fair working practices are at the heart of Scotland's economic recovery."

Scotland's economy secretary has suggested cutting VAT to stimulate consumer spending in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.

Fiona Hyslop said reducing the tax would be a great tool to stimulate demand and boost the economy.

She has also called on the UK Chancellor to extend the furlough scheme beyond October. The UK government says its economic support during the coronavirus pandemic is among the most generous in the world.

Ms Hyslop said Scotland cutting VAT would be "a quick and practical measure" for the Treasury to take.

Ms Hyslop is asked if she would like to see an end to the quarantine system that affects international travel into Scotland. The economy secretary says the UK government and international community will be looking at that, as well as so-called air bridges.

"I back the science and I want to make sure that we've got the measures in place that ensure we have confidence in people travelling around," she says.

Ms Hyslop backs away from saying that international tourism won't happen at all this year.

"It's got to happen when it is safe to do so but we've got to be realistic.We'll be looking at the rest of the UK, and hopefully Ireland as well, where we can look to improve the markets for this year."

The next two months will be vital to Scotland's tourism industry, Ms Hyslop says.

Ms Hyslop says: "We want to ensure we can support jobs across all the sectors. But it will be particularly challenging in some.We will see this week what the changes might be in Scotland, but it's really important that when we see that easing of the lockdown there's a security and a stability for employment.

"That means we are suppressing the virus sufficiently to give customers the confidence to go back."

Scotland's economy secretary Fiona Hyslop says our heavier reliance on the tourism industry is a major reason behind Scotland's unemployment rate being the highest in the UK. She says the official figures only capture five weeks of lockdown and "we need to see what happens subsequently".

"But the scale of what's coming down the track will be far, far more than we've seen here and that is why the scale of the response has to equal that challenge."

Scotland's unemployment rate is now the highest among all the UK nations, according to official figures.

The Office for National Statistics said unemployment in Scotland was 4.6%, compared with a UK rate of 3.9%.

Unemployment in Scotland rose by 30,000 to 127,000 between March and May, official figures suggest.

The number of workers on UK payrolls dived more than 600,000 during the same period.

Business experts say any social-distancing measures - whether one metre or two- will force some hospitality firms to operate below their normal capacity and cause continued financial problems.

Mairi Spowage, deputy director of the University of Strathclyde's Fraser of Allander Institute, told BBC Scotland: "We have to accept that is going to be with us for some time

"But it's not just about the customer capacity pubs and restaurants have to offer, we've also got to think about consumer confidence."

She says that if it gets to the point that governments are comfortable with reducing social--distancing, there remains the issue of encouraging people to spend. And she adds that "the majority of people don't feel comfortable about doing that in the next month or so".

The Conservative party is increasing calls for the two-metre rule to be relaxed to help businesses.

It follows warnings that parts of the leisure industry will not survive under current social distancing measures.

Linda Bauld, professor of public health at Edinburgh University, has told BBC Scotland that the UK and Scottish governments are following a "cautious approach because the science is not exact on this".

She said: "The bottom line is, the further away you are from someone, the less the risk of transmitting the virus."

She says other countries have taken a different approach based on other guidelines, such as the compulsory wearing of face coverings.

Economy Secretary Fiona Hyslop has called for a continuation of the UK government’s job retention scheme beyond October.

Ms Hyslop said it was "vital that the UK has a long-term approach in place so we can offer certainty to individuals and businesses about what support will be available to them beyond October".

In a letter to the Chancellor Rishi Sunak, the SNP minister pointed out that some sectors of the Scottish economy, such as tourism and hospitality, will not have fully recovered within the next four months.

The UK government’s wages scheme, and support for the self employed, has assisted a total of 774,000 people in Scotland so far.

The first indication of the impact coronavirus has had on Scotland's jobs market is due to be published.

The official Labour Market statistics will cover the three months to the end of April so will reflect the first full month of the lockdown period.

Data published last month showed a huge increase in people claiming unemployment benefit in Scotland.

The figures will not capture the impact of those in the UK government furlough scheme.

It was mainly about education on Monday. Here is what happened:

• Nicola Sturgeon vowed that council planning for the new academic year would "maximise the time young people spend in a school environment" and suggested the amount of face-to-face teaching being propsed by some councils wasn't good enough
• The EIS teachers union said a 50% target for in-school teaching would be hard to achieve.
• Ms Sturgeon dismissed reports that blended learning would last a year
• She said she hoped to confirm later this week that Scotland is ready to move into phase two of lockdown easing - although not all elements will kick in straight away
• No new deaths were registered over the last 24 hours with the death toll remaining at 2,448
• Scottish Labour leader Richard Leonard urged an independent body to investigate whether the human rights of care home residents were violated during the Covid-19 crisis
• EasyJet flights from Gatwick to Glasgow and Inverness touched down for the first time since lockdown
• In football, Hearts began legal action after a proposal for league construction that would have saved the club from relegation failed to muster sufficient support
