The beach hut
BEACH huts in Shoebury have had racist messages strewn across them, telling Polish people leaving in the town to "go home."
The vile messages have been painted across six beach huts and a nearby dinghy along the Promenade, with runners spotting the drawings this morning.
A 25-year-old resident, who wished to remain to remain anonymous, said: "It's disgraceful, and pretty embarassing.
"A few beach huts and a boat on the sand along the Uncle Tom's cabin area have been vandalised with this same disgusting phrase."
