OK. In theory that is true. She also pushed her trolley into the other women. That is assault.

I fully understand Mrs Davies feelings. I feel the same in that I dont like people living in any country other than their ancestral homeland. I understand the reason why people want to be in britain but my answer to that is that we should be workig towards a world where everyone can enjoy the same prosperity, peace and security where there are no refugees fleeing from persecution, people suffering famines etc etc

Sadly, there are very few people in this country who are from their ancestral homeland. Nost families have people from another country in their line of descent.
I do agree that we should be working towards a world with no persecution though.

I don't condone Mrs Davies actions in verbally abusing this woman or any physical action she took against her that is wrong. I can understand why Mrs Davies took the action she took because nobody listens to those who want britain for the british people.

While I do agree that we should have tighter immigration rules, I think that this woman has set this cause back by attacking somebody who may actually have been born in this country (and therefore be legally British). Assuming somebody comes from a country because they look like they do can be wrong.

My reply to those of you who label my comments racist is the same words of the Sunday Express Editor. "The word 'racism' is bandied about like a political hand-grenade to silence debate."

The word "racism" is used too easily. What the elderly woman said was racist, but I haven't seen anything in this thread I would consider racist.
