Ed. It's a rant. She's basically going round the tram verbally calling people out for not being English... Angry white lady is in bold. My notes and other quotes in regular.
"You aint English, you aint English... You aint English either. Ja know what - sort out your own countries, don't come ruining mine. Britain is nothing now. Britain's fuck all. My Britain is fuck all now."
Someone calls her out for her language as there are children on the tram. Asks her to have some respect.
"I've got a child here!" "Have respect?..."
Woman calling her out says. "Someone needs to throw you off the tram".
"Really? I fuckin dare you! Go back to where you come from. Go back to Niggeraguwa [sic] or wherever you come from..."
This is the point where the guy behind her stands up and people are all saying no no no calming him down etc.
The debate descends into a debate about who does the work that the Brits don't want to do. She answers this stuff in an almost pastiche thick way.
It quite quickly raises in anger levels at this point... "you aint British? You aint British you're black" (this is the part where a girl goes over and hugs the guy behind her - she's still oblivious of him).
At this point the woman to our right (her left) has a word along the lines of "will you calm it down because now you've woken my baby up so just fuck off..."
"Look someone's got to talk to these lot. Look at the whole fucking tram! Look at em! Who's black and who's white? It's all black and fuckin brown people..."
At this point it ends. I fucking dread to think what was said next. I'm shaking just transcribing it for you to be honest.
