Nicola Sturgeon's 'clown' Boris Johnson birthday card spotted at her 50th bash

Nicola Sturgeon celebrated her 50th Birthday on Sunday and was "overwhelmed" by the number of cards she received.

The First Minister's husband proudly showed off her birthday card collection next to some 50th birthday balloons and one card, in particular, stood out to eagle-eyed social media users.

Peter Murrell put up the birthday post writing: "Night night, sleep tight @NicolaSturgeon." and it didn't take long for people to spot a familiar face amongst the cards.

One card appeared to show an image of UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson with the words "I've hired a first class clown for your birthday"

It is unclear if the cheeky card was a joke from Peter to his wife, but many followers agreed that the card is "hilarious."

One person wrote: "Love it someone has a brilliant sense of yourself and your humour. They obviously knew that it would make you laugh."

Another wrote: "Omg great sense of humour."

But not everyone found it funny with one person adding:" Proof if it were needed that Sturgeon has no respect for the Prime Minister."
