http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-19340264A woman has been arrested on suspicion of making racist comments after police examined footage of a woman on a bus.The 34-year-old was arrested on Tuesday at an address in Hackney, east London, on suspicion of a racially aggravated public order offence, police said.It comes after footage of a black woman in a distressed state proclaiming her African heritage and disparaging white people was uploaded to Youtube.
When the last couple of incidents occurred, a number of posters seemed to think this would never happen in the UK I have a large humble pie here for anyone who wants a piece

I'd keep that humble pie until she is found, charged and serving some kind of punishment for her crime.

The white woman was a racist who was drunk. The black woman was high as a kite....never a racist??  This nutjob should get the same punishment as the previous nutjob. Then justice will be seen to be served. Anything else and it is a bigger issue than it is now.

I found the video funny more than anything. Really didn't insult me. Odd!
I wonder where it will go, who said worse things? If I remember the previous ranting, she was much more venemous and insulting. I don't think this women will be punished as harshly, not because shes black, but because the ranting wasn't as bad IMO.
A couple of transcripts could make it a lot easier to compare!
