Racist and sectarian singing during Glasgow's Orange walks leads to arrests
Members of the County Grand Orange Lodge take part in the annual Orange walk parade through the city centre of Glasgow

POLICE have made several arrests after racist and sectarian singing took place during Orange walks on Saturday.

Thousands of people took part in processions that shut down city centre roads and prompted counter-protests and condemnation of anti-Catholic bigotry.

Up to 800 police officers were deployed to manage marches that headed through the city centre and past Catholic churches.
