Woman 'punched in face for speaking Spanish' on Overground train

Tangent point but I have a crashpad in very west London that I stay at from time to time, my neighbour on one side is Indian, and the other side are a bunch of Gopniks. This is like a totally normal suburban area.

Guess which side:

  1. Comes and goes at all hours, has 8 people stuffed in a 3-bed including a family of 4, the place reeks of cigs (to the extent I can't leave the crashpad unattended with windows open during the summer), leaves bottles in the garden and uses my bins indiscriminately when theirs overflows - and as I discovered later from the landlord, somehow is getting Housing Benefit to the tune of over £1K/mo.

  2. Is like a completely normal British family except with spicier aromas coming from the kitchen from time to time and is mortgaged.

I can understand some people's attitudes even if I disgree with their prejudices if this sort of thing is what they see every day.
