Following the video there was a witch hunt across London to track down the woman yelling all the racial slurs, and from there she was named and shamed and then arrested. (As can be seen here http://edition.cnn.com//2011/11/29/world/europe/uk-racist-tram-rant/index.html?hpt=hp_t3).
Following on further, it has been reported that Emma West, aka 'Racist Tram Lady', has been receiving death threats and has been remanded in custody for her own protection. (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/45526795/ns/world_news-europe/#.Tto9qmD2LoA)
However, the most mind blowing part of the story for me is that there is a group called 'Britain First' who have jumped to West's defence, as well as protesting outside the prison where she is being held and calling for her to be released.
All in all, I've come to the conclusion that everyone is going a bit mental and I think I might just have to lock myself in my room to escape the craziness. It really is the only thing I can think to do if I am risking bumping into a nutter like her if I go outside!
