Shocking Covid conspiracy graffiti defaces North Shields seafront promenade

Vandals have defaced a large section of the promenade from North Shields to Tynemouth with graffiti spouting Covid conspiracy theories.

The shocking messages, which include misinformation about the coronavirus vaccine and slurs about prominent political figures, have been daubed along the walls of the popular walkway from the Fish Quay to Tynemouth. The graffiti, which has been carried out using coloured chalk, appeared over the weekend.

Walkers in the area could be seen to react with surprise and concern at the graffiti on Sunday, July 3, which covers a huge section of the seafront promenade.
