Sisi_Kill: Gina Thompson?!

Film and media Student??!

Rivers state people have names as Thompson for surnames. Most of their names are English names. As stated in the article, she is from port harcourt so I wouldn't doubt that.

Tell them we freaking funding their crumbling economy...as an international student, first, about £15k yearly on tuition alone, about £12k on accommodation, about £10k on shopping...all plus taxes. Tell the frustrated, lazy, welfare-dependent sick old lady to grab a life!
Canadaians respect international students more than anyone because they know intl students spend thousands of dollars on education plus other expenses...something they (Canadians) never can spend on education.
But the British, the Russians, the East Europeans, etc are freaking sick group of peopel who need knoking. Murde.r-f***kers

DICKtator: 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!!!!!!!

Nah, she is probably on benefits also. Most of them are angry at David Cameron for slashing benefits so they put their anger on immigrants.

I swear, Americans are waayyyyyy ignorant, way way way ignorant!! Some student tried to pull that sh_it off in class with me, talking crap about how international students don't pay half the amount they pay. I was like "what, are you freaking kidding me? do you even know how much international students pay? y'all have the option of applying for federal aid, the international students do not and you sit here talking stuff you don't know about"..I was so pissed that day.

Goldie20: '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.’

Don't think the lady is racist, but she's actually viewed the opinion of millions of Britons. These people hate your gut 'cause of the benefits available to non-English. They see you guys as threat to their economy. However, they've failed to return £billions of our inheritance; our gold statues, raw golds and other stuff they stole from us. Nigerians are like hooks Stuck in the throats of these crackers. Nigeria will only get better and nothing else.

Do I blame those Nigerians in the UK, absolutely no. No country is self-sufficient, and emigration is part of economic growth and downsize. Just because shiit happens does not mean everyone has to come back to Nigeria. Let them say is a phrase we hear well too often. Don't just allow any one to get under your skin with their unsavoury utterance. Focus, achieve and come back to Nigeria to establish.

God bless Nigerians all over the world, and God bless the federal republic of Nigeria.
