The adverts, created by the anti-immigration Sweden Democrats party, apologise to tourists visiting the Swedish capital for the "mess", the Aftonbladet newspaper reports . One stretches the entire length of the escalator at the city's Ostermalmstorg metro station, and says Sweden has a "serious problem with forced begging". Stockholm's transport company says it has received hundreds of complaints since the adverts first appeared on Monday, and that "98% of them are critical". Some of the posters have already been torn down by members of the public.
