Does Scotland still have a sectarianism problem?

BBC Radio Scotland - Morning Extra, Does Scotland still have a sectarianism problem?

Graham Stewart takes your calls on Irish diplomats' concerns over Rangers chants.

Graham Stewart takes your calls on Irish diplomats' concerns over anti-Irish Rangers chants at a recent Old Firm game.

The Irish Consul General has been in touch with the Scottish Government about the issue of some Rangers fans singing a song about the famine in Ireland at the Old Firm derby a couple of weeks ago. Does it prove, as the former First Minister Jack McConnell said at the weekend, that the "cancer" of religious bigotry is already returning? He criticised First Minister Alex Salmond for his "disgraceful" decision to abandon all-out war on sectarianism. Is Mr McConnell right? Or is the fact it's being taken so seriously at a government level proof that sectarianism is being properly confronted and challenged?
