Shameful sectarian graffiti has been plastered on the side of a Glasgow bridge.
The words 'Kill all taigs' were written on Kingston Bridge next to the River Clyde with union jack colours in the background.
Taig is a derogatory term used to describe Catholics.
Glasgow City Council condemned the graffiti and assured it will be removed at the earliest opportunity.

A council spokeswoman said: “It’s sad to see sectarian graffiti of this type on display.
"The matter has been reported and our graffiti teams will remove it at the earliest opportunity.”
It comes after videos of Rangers fans' group Union Bears gathered last night ahead of the Old Firm derby.
Videos shared on social media showed a large group of people gathered by the bridge and singing 'Billy Boys'.
