Staff from the Evening Times in Glasgow were greeted with a foul-mouthed tirade outside a school while keeping track of parents flouting the no parking zone.

A reporter and photographer from the paper had been outside Kelvindale Primary School in Glasgow's West End during the morning rush hour when a woman who had parked in the 'Keep Clear' zone told them: "Don't think you'll see my picture in the Evening Times".

She had parked only yards away from them, but did not react well to being caught on camera.

She told them: "I want those pictures destroyed.

"I was only getting my daughter's books out. The car wasn't even stopped."

After going into the school with her child, the woman emerged ten minutes later and swore at the news duo as she drove off.

The incident happened as Evening Time staff gathered evidence for the paper's campaign to stop drivers parking on yellow zigzags outside schools.

Its story attracted dozens of comments from readers who left messages on its website.

One reader said: "I hope the police are going to be using the evidence of these photos to punish the morons concerned.

"Is it just me, or have a lot of the people in the photos so far looked like they could do with a wee walk with their kids in the morning?

"The foul-mouthed woman on this page, for example... she looks like she could do with shifting a few pounds. Hopefully she'll be reading this, wanting to check if she made the paper."

Another added: "I agree - that fine specimen of womanhood obviously could do with shifting a few pies, not into her mouth mind.

"When will they learn?!"

Another comment read: "The lady in the picture is simply showing the world that she has no respect for the children of the school her child attends, for the rules put in place by the school or for herself."
