On what basis do they conclude with any certainty that it was "racially aggraveated"? Or is that the default position now wherever the victim is non-white?
Good point. Seems to be an automatic assumption nowadays; coloured person gets assaulted/insulted then it must be a racist attack.

What happens if blacks beat on a white person? Is that assumed, and broadcast, as racism?

Or is the white man automatically accused and charged for provoking the attack?

By the same token on PH most racist things are assumed a lot of tosh and the 'card' has been placed...

This whole story has been eggsagerated!
The BBC must have eggshausted their stock of "news" stories.
It was, however, thought necessary to scramble the local police instant response team!

The yolk of it is she'll probably go poaching for compensation and the state will have to shell out.

I wonder if there were any persons not wearing a Hijab who were also egged by what is likely to be a bunch of kids riding round chucking eggs at anyone they see........ Either that or Combat 18/BNP have really toned down their attacks?!?!?

Eggactly, was there a message on the egg?
"Duck".

Not sure if it was an instruction or an inventory.

You've got to admit though that throwing an egg from a moving vehicle to hit someone on their bonce is good going.

He should play Cricket for England.
Beaten to it!! i wqas about to say....


A woman wearing a hijab was hit above the eye by an egg thrown from a passing car in what police in Surrey described as a damn good shot, bearing in mind the speed of the car, wind resistance etc. Andrew Strauss has demanded he be given the name of the perpetrator, as he might have a place for him in the next ODI!!!

Where does it say the launchers of said eggy bomb were white? Is it not racist to assume the perps were white? I have had eggs launched at me by passing cars and I am white, hell I am blond as well, I have no idea what colour the eggers were, only the colour they would have been if I could have stopped them.

When doing the ramshackle Rally last year I got hit in the face by an an egg thrown from a car.

Because I was in a foreign country it must have been racially motivated!

Were is my BBC news story?

Also I was wearing a Hawaian shirt and Steve Irwin style shorts.
