This is the horrific moment a woman was racially abused after she tried to stop a man smoking on a London bus.
The shocking incident, filmed on a camera phone, took place at around 9.20pm on Tuesday on the number 36 bus.
Footage shows a wheelchair-bound man lighting up a cigarette in the disabled section of the bus as it passed through Bishop’s Bridge Road, Westminster.
After the woman complains, he shouts: “Stop going on woman. If you don’t like it go back to your own country. I will say it.
“You’ve f***ing taken over England now f*** off. Stop sponging off the state.
“I live in Belgravia I’m a f***ing billionaire, now f*** off. I can do what I want shut your mouth.”
Paul Brown, who filmed the confrontation, said he went to comfort the victim after the verbal assault.
He told the Standard: “It was a really hostile journey.
“The bus driver stopped and asked her if she wanted him to call the police but she just wanted to get going. No-one wants to hear that in 2021.
“I gave him an earful saying you can’t speak to people like that.
“I asked the poor woman if she wanted to sit next to me but she declined. The whole of the bus was against him and let him know.”
A Scotland Yard spokeswoman said: “We are aware of a video circulating on Twitter in which a woman received verbal abuse from a man on a bus.
“The video shows the incident which took place at approximately 21:20hrs on Tuesday, 9 November on a route 36 bus along Bishop’s Bridge Road, Westminster.
“Officers have been in touch with the person who published the video.
“Enquiries into the circumstances continue.”

If only he'd have ordered him to stop smoking.

He's a billionaire from Belgravia, he can smoke wherever he wants.

If he's a billionaire, why's he on the bus? Billionaires in London tend to be chauffeured around in their Rolls Royces, or (in the case of the younger ones) zoom down Brompton Road in their McLarens.

It’s absolutely disgusting that in this day and age people still record in portrait.

It is then transposed badly into 16:9 using that filter and then horizontally and vertically centred in 1:1 at 50% output size.
It's a crime against racism.

5 years ago I would have agreed with you but now most people are watching videos on their phones, which tend to be larger and are likely watching it in portrait.

You are statistically correct.
Human beings (and a pretty wide variety of subjects) are often taller than they are wide.
Still aesthetically jarring with bifocal vision, however.
The mobile phone industrial design is oriented around single handed use and so is the interface.
The human eye's possible field of focus is relatively narrow. The same field within which colour and resolution detail is pretty high. Outside of that space, it is mostly motion and monochromatic perception.
As the recorded and resolvable detail of videos etc on mobile devices increases beyond a certain point, the outermost information is somewhat redundant in social settings.
People are still gooseberry fool at framing anything though and hardly anyone can capture a landscape effectively unless they challenge their perception of the urban environment, which is cognitively expensive and not organic.
What we are talking about, is a war between latitudinal and longitudinal lived experience.
Official artist's judgement.
Try getting an AI to write that. I strawberry floating dare you.
