Community leaders and councillors have expressed shock and outrage after offensive Islamophobic graffiti was sprayed on a bus stop in South Bristol. The words ‘F*** you Allah’ was sprayed on the bus stop on West Street in Bedminster , in front of the job centre at some point before Monday evening.

Police have been alerted, and the graffiti has been reported to Bristol City Council , which is responsible for maintaining bus stops, but a group of local residents did try to clean off the graffiti themselves on Monday evening.

A spokesperson for Way Out West, the community group made up of local residents and business owners, expressed shock at the vandalism, and said messages of this nature should not be tolerated.
