A Hull MP has spoken out after receiving “abuse” from football fans on a Hull train service.

Diana Johnson, the Labour MP for Hull North, took to Twitter on Saturday night to speak of the “really distressing” actions of alleged football fans while on a Northern Trains service to Doncaster, just before 7pm.

The MP said: “On a Northern Trains service to Doncaster and a group of football fans being abusive & foul mouthed.

“Really distressing to families in carriage.

“Female conductor getting abuse too. I have just been told to ‘shut up and called an old cow’.

“Depressing that people behave in this way.”
