'You're coming here and pleading poverty while we're paying taxes': Shocking rant of woman against foreign students in hospital waiting room caught on mobile A shocking video emerged today of a woman going on a rant to patients in a hospital waiting room. The two-minute clip, filmed on Saturday night at Ipswich Hospital in Suffolk, saw the woman shout abuse at students Gina Thompson, 23, of Nigeria, and her 21-year-old Spanish friend. The woman asked them ‘where do you come from’ before saying: ‘You're coming over here and you're pleading poverty. We are paying taxes you a***holes and we are going down in this crisis.’ The incident took place at 7:30pm in the hospital’s accident and emergency department waiting room, where Miss Thompson had gone with her friend who had sprained her ankle playing sport. Miss Thompson, of Port Harcourt, Nigeria, is a film and media student at University Campus Suffolk and has been in the UK for two years, while her friend from Seville, Spain, arrived last September. The woman shouted in front of about 20 shocked patients and friends or relatives: ‘What has happened to this f*****g country’, before directly abusing Miss Thompson who was sitting down. She asked her ‘Where do you come from?’, to which Miss Thompson replied: ‘What does it matter where I'm from?’ The woman said: ‘We are paying taxes you a***holes and we are going down in this crisis’, before Miss Thompson replied: ‘Don't call me an a***hole’. But the woman said: ‘I will, because you're coming over here and you're pleading poverty. I am not well.’ But Miss Thompson responded: ‘You won't call me an a***hole. I will not accept that. Don't call me an a***hole. Don't come to my face and insult me. You won't do that. Calling me an a***hole? Are you alright?’ The woman said back: ‘Don't accept it, you fat a***’, before a voice off camera said the police had been called. The woman was then apprehended by a group of nurses, paramedics and security guards, saying: ‘There's a revolution going on here.’ Miss Thompson told MailOnline after the incident: ‘I was so embarrassed and I couldn’t do anything because I was stuck in the situation, so we just had to laugh about it. All the attention was on us. ‘She said I've come here to claim poverty. That's not true. I'm an international student and I pay £13,000 a year in tuition fees. My friend is a student here from Spain.’ ‘It made me feel low of myself. I had to go back home and question why it was wrong I was here. My friend was surprised. She was scared, she was terrified. ‘She kind of felt unsafe afterwards. She is Spanish and her English is not perfect, but she could sort of understand what the woman was saying. When she got back home, she said: “Are we in trouble?” This woman was a very normal looking woman who you wouldn't think would abuse you. How many people are the same like that? I’m scared.' A Suffolk Constabulary spokesman told MailOnline: 'We have arrested and charged somebody. She has been charged with assault on a police officer, two counts of racially aggravated assault and two charges of assault. So, five charges altogether. ‘She is due to appear at Ipswich Magistrates’ Court on the 20th February. She was arrested at the A&E department on Saturday evening and she was brought in. She was charged on Sunday night.’ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lRQ26uq1Ts Source http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2273150/Rant-woman-Suffolk-students-Spain-Nigeria-Ipswich-Hospital.html#axzz2JsTXuhjl

Racism n Tribalism are the 2 hydra-headed monsters destroying today's world. Even if u travel abroad to unwind or for holiday,it does not remove racial tendencies or attack....its quite unfortunate dat some animals in human skin are still living in the "stone age" or else by now, they should appreciate n understand the synergy effect of globalization n therefore treat all human beings with respect n dignity irrespective of your race, sexual orientation, background, colour, age, culture etc 4 Likes |

Re: Nigerian Student Verbally Abused In A UK Hospital by DICKtator: 6:26pm On Feb 04, 2013 |
serves the nigerian right. maybe that would be a wake up call for her and her likes to start a revolution in Nigeria. We have what it takes. Let us start to demand our rights from our leaders. They want to waste our generation. We should not allow them. Heed the clarion call. Let clean the Augean Stable /rot in the educational sector and all other sectors in Nigeria NOW They do not care because their children are sent abroad with our money and they finish as at when due while they bastardise our own educational system, delay most graduates' calculated year of graduation, making it impossible for some to reach the age-limit benchmark set by most organisations . WAKE UP YOUTH. WE ARE THE LEADERS OF TOMORROW!!!!!!! AND OUR TOMORROW IS TODAY!!!!! 19 Likes |

Another cranky, psychotic, mutant albino biyotch, come to advertise her stupiidity. "You people come pleading poverty". Just about the same type of ignorance I encountered in Nashville, Tennesse. If I tell you the Americans are far more stupiiid and ignorant eh. Majority of these people find it difficult to believe there are well-to-do Africans. You needed to see the shock in the faces of tese morroons when they saw me driving my own car, living in a neighborhood they could only dream of living, and most of all, showing great intellect that far outclasses their own. Retarrds will be retarrds. 9 Likes |

British people are so polite o! How can someone just walk up to you aggressively demanding where you're from? I don't really see that happening in the US because it's most certainly going to lead to a fight! The response should have been "bi*ch you better get the fo*k out of my face!" 3 Likes |

If I was the Nigerian woman,I would have reminded the white lady of how her country colonized and looted mine and messed it up, and that i had a birth right to this healthcare. its obvious why this thought didnt come to this msiss thmpson. she doent even have a Trad. Nigegrian name. so such rpelies wuldnt come to her mind since she probably suffers from slave mentality. 6 Likes |

I stayed there late last year, but recently found a decent house in the Buckhead area of Atlanta Georgia. Georgia itself is just as racist, so are Florida and East Texas. In short...
