We heard earlier of the woman on the bus racist outburst, and now just to level things up a little, here's a man on a bus also being racist.

The more refugees we have arriving in the UK, the more people will be taking exception to them, even if at times they do pick on the 'wrong' (as in long term resident) ones. How long will it be before we have groups of people taking exception, not just the odd one, and the refugees standing against them en-masse, there lies anarchy if we are not careful.

To be fair though - it could be dependent on the time of day you travel. At the weekends, I tend to go out to places serviced by the Northern Line, because if I've had a lot to drink (which is always), I don't want the hassle of changing lines to get home.
Certain parts of the Northern Line are a nightmare - such as the stretch going out of Leicester Square, and others are fine (the stretch coming out of Old Street).
But night buses - they're a little bit like the Wild West coming out of Camden. Mostly good humoured, but sometimes things can get a little 'fraught'.

Does that mean that recently arrived immigrants are the ‘right ones’, and it’s OK to pick on them with vile racism and physical assaults?
Or am I misreading what you are saying?

Let's hope that people pick on the correct immigrants.
It would be awful if say, my mother were mistaken by someone as a recent immigrant and had abuse hurled at her, when there were perfectly good 'new immigrants' to attack.
Perhaps it would make sense for everyone whose skin is darker than say, David Dickinson to wear a badge which details how long they have been in the UK, so that attackers would know exactly who to target.
For anyone who needs help with the David Dickinson reference, here he is, in all him mahogany magnificence:
