A statistically significant (99.1%) excess of red galaxies from the APM Sky Catalogue is found around a sample of z ∼ 1 1Jy radio sources. The most plausible explanation for this result seems to be the magnification bias caused by the weak gravitational lensing of large scale structures at intermediate redshifts.
