    Do not take it to heart. You did your best at the station for this young woman. Sometimes people get blamed for doing something they did not do. Move on and forget about it.

    PS but no excuse for referring the young lady in question by a derogatory name based on her class.

    Yeah she deserved it given her EXTREMELY obnoxious behaviour in my opinion. I have a right to free speech, and so did she. Problem solved.

    Exactly will do. I accept that you disagree with me, but see my reply to another post above. In the end of the day I have a right to free speech, and as much as I believe in that right, I also think this thread is best locked before it gets out of hand.

    No, a chavette is a female chav.
    You really don’t get to make derogatory judgements about others. People in glass houses, etc.

    5) just turned up on time in the first place, as having a disabled child is not an excuse for tardiness.

    As the parent of a disabled child, I vote for (5). Yes I know it can take longer to get our son to wherever we need to go, but we allow plenty of extra time to do so. You don't plan to turn up on time, you plan to turn up 5 or 10 minutes before 'on time' because you just know that you'll need that extra time for something.

    Exactly. As if that weren't bad enough, she could have gone to the help point and used that to contact NRE (that is National Rail Enquiries), and requested that they make arrangements to get her and her family to Attleborough station ASAP (As Soon As Possible), by using the fastest method, whether that be to get assistance to get them onto the next available train, or booking them a taxi there. Then from Attleborough, they could get the next available train onto their next interchange station from there. Thank you.

    Actually you don't. Have you read the Equality Act 2010 recently?

    Your view of your rights is some way from reality, though. For example, you believe that you have a right to have the police go with your interpretation of the law. You believe that you are allowed to follow and film women without their consent.

    How many more convictions will it take for you to understand that you cannot act as though your view gets to direct how others act?
