Swastikas and National Front symbols have been spray-painted on the streets of Levensulme.

Members of the community have expressed their outrage after waking up to find the far right and anti-semitic symbols outside mosques and near a health centre.

The far-right symbols were daubed on the pavement on Barlow Road and on Stanhope Street.

Waseem Khalid said he was 'shocked' when he spotted a swastika on his way to Madina mosque on Barlow Road at around 6.30am on Friday.

The carer said: "I was a bit taken aback. It was a few feet away from the mosque. I saw people looking at it, looking completely shocked.

"I felt almost as sense of disillusionment. (Levenshulme) is a multicultural society. I've never seen anything like this before."

Waseem said he thinks actions like this will make the community pull together, rather than causing any divisions.

"I think people will rally together. It will have the opposite impact."

"I have been here 10 years. I have never had any problems. I saw it also outside Levenshulme Health Centre car park. It's stupid idiots going around with nothing better to do."
