Racist messages plastered across a Brisbane street have been removed.

The posters said “ANZACs died for a white Australia” and used racial slurs against multiple ethnic groups.

They were found at the intersection of Milton, Park and Baroona roads in Milton on Friday and removed by Brisbane City Council the same day.

The Queensland Police counter-terrorism command has been notified.

“It’s repulsive that individuals are exploiting our ANZACs to perpetuate evil and division in our community,” Deputy Mayor Fiona Cunningham said in a statement.

“Brisbane is an incredibly vibrant multicultural community, and we must all do what we can to protect that by stamping out hateful and divisive behaviour.”

Brisbane Times has chosen not to publish photos of the posters, which promoted a hate group’s website.
