Default Help! RCD Keeps tripping on new wiring

No insult what so ever, I know it's likely to be something silly like that.

Just checked and the neutral from the socket is wired into the shared
neutral bus bar, only the live is wired directly into the MCB.

I should say that this is my first time doing anything like this (as if that
probably wasn't patently obvious already).

Thanks anyway though
