NHS dentist told 'go back to your own country' in racist tirade by 'vile' train passenger

This is the shocking moment a row erupts on a train as a vile woman tells an NHS dentist to "go back to your own country". The unnamed male dentist was on an Avanti West Coast train from London to Manchester when he got into an argument with a "disgusting" fellow passenger opposite him. In a video posted on TikTok by therealdrmero, the two-minute altercation starts with the woman telling the dentist to "go back to Morocco or Tunisia". The man, who filmed the video, tries to explain to the vile woman that he was born in the UK, but the woman hits back saying "It doesn't look like it". She is then pressed on whether she is British herself but she refuses to answer. The stunned man replies: "That is racist what you said, don't disrespect me like that. You probably weren't born here yourself.".
Fellow passengers can be heard later on in the video describing the comments as "disgusting". The man then informs her he's been recording the shocking outburst, to which she replies: 'Good, good, show it to the police - I have no regrets. Show it to the police, show it to the staff." A second video posted a woman being led away from the station by British Transport Police officers. A British Transport spokesperson said: “Officers received a text report to 61016 at about 11.45am on 3 February concerning racial abuse on a train from Euston to Manchester. Officers met the train at Stoke railway station and identified people in connection. Enquiries into the incident are ongoing.
