Nearly a third of people in Britain admit being racially prejudiced, research has suggested.
The British Social Attitudes survey found the proportion had increased since the start of the century, returning to the level of 30 years ago.
According to the survey, by social research company NatCen, 25% of those polled in Scotland described themselves as either "very" or "a little" race prejudiced.
