CAMPAIGNERS have condemned anti-Irish graffiti that has been seen on a Glasgow bridge.
The phrase "Kill All T****" was seen written on to the Tradeston Bridge on Tuesday, with a sticker reading "F**k T****" applied to another part of the structure.
Dave Scott, of anti-sectarianism charity Nil By Mouth, said the vandalism was more than just "moronic nonsense".
He said: "What we've got here is bigger than moronic nonsense, threats of violence towards people.
"It's sadly typical of the type of thing we've been seeing the rise of in Glasgow over a number of years.
"I condemn it wholeheartedly.
"Not only is it hatred, but it's costing the taxpayer money to clean up this type of thing."

The graffiti comes as a UN committee has recommended that the Scottish Government take action on anti-Irish racism.
Jeanette Findlay, of campaign group Call It Out wants to see Glasgow City Council take up more action on racist vandalism in the area around the bridge.
"This part of the city in particular is regularly covered in racist graffiti.
"In the past council workers have removed it reasonably quickly, but it is incumbent on the police and the council to take preventative action.
"They will know where it happens, and will know the main times when it happens, so they could install cameras or set up patrols."
Police Scotland and Glasgow City Council were contacted for comment.
