GlasGLOW targeted by eco-activist vandals spraying obscene graffiti on displays

Eco-activists have spray-painted obscene graffiti on displays at the GlasGLOW event just hours after dozens of families enjoyed the show. Key pieces of the light show in the Glasgow Botanic Gardens were targeted in the early hours of Saturday morning with the culprits caught on CCTV.

Show bosses are appealing for help from members of the public to identify the six individuals responsible - but vowed tonight’s showing will still go ahead. The attack came over claims event company itison is abusing wildlife and destroying the gardens by hosting the event there.

Workers were pictured cleaning graffiti, which read ‘Greta was here’ next to a Saltire flag, off a dinosaur statue. A wooden box was also vandalised with the words 'f*** animal cruelty', while 'No Tory c***s' was daubed across a barrier.
