This woman, covertly videoed on a south London tram, has caused a stir over on Reddit today, with a loud, ill-informed, racist tirade about how immigrants are supposedly destroying Britain.

The fact that this video is shareable at all says a lot about how racially tolerant Britain today really is. Seriously, she sounds like the behind-the-times old men I used to cross the street to avoid when I was young.

As the original poster on Reddit says, “I feel sorry for the kid.”

UPDATE: The BBC reports that following the exposure this video has received online today, a 34-year-old woman has been arrested for a racially-aggravated offence.
