Sorry, this video isn't available any more.

This is the moment that an apparently drunk passenger started throwing racist abuse at a boy on London Underground.

The man in a white t-shirt was quickly drowned out by another passenger who was applauded for stepping in to defend him.

The boy asked him ‘what’s the point of being racist?’ to which her responds ‘I’m racist because you’re stupid’.

The boy, whose age is unknown, said he was minding his own business on the Piccadilly Line train when the man began to harass him.


The older man then appeared to say: ‘You are doing something, you’re a citizen here for some reason.’

Fed up with what he was hearing, a fellow commuter got to his feet and started telling the drunk man that if he wanted a real fight he should ‘go outside’.



He said: ‘You need to shut up, you’ve been disturbing this boy for a long time and we’re all getting f**ked off with you.

‘You’re drunk. Leave him alone, alright? You’re clearly f***ing racist. Leave him alone!’

He adds: ‘We’re all sitting there calm, and someone has to say something to you because you’re ridiculous.’

Lex Blondin, who filmed the confrontation, posted the clip to social media.

He said: ‘He got taken out of the Tube at the next stop as well and massive applause ensued.

‘I wish I could have done exactly that but I don’t have quite the shoulders for it.’

British Transport Police told Metro.co.uk they are aware of the footage but it has not yet been reported to them.
