Bicycle and car parts retailer Halfords has defended its decision to keep shops open amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Its Autocentre garages and mobile vans remain open, with plans for "partial store coverage" across its 446 shops.

Boss Graham Stapleton said the chain had "an essential role to play in keeping the country moving".

Halfords drew criticism after it said it would keep some stores open after being named by the government as an "essential provider of services".

#BoycottHalfords was trending on social media on Tuesday.

Some Twitter users cited concerns over a lack of protection for on-site workers while others, including MSP Fulton MacGregor, questioned whether the business should be open at all.
