Two women who worked for the railway were spat on by a passenger who told them he had Covid. A few days later one of them, the mother of an eleven year old, died of covid herself.

I hope they find him.

Televised sport (football) should stop legitimising spitting

I knew what this would be about as soon as I saw the thread title. I wanted to weep when I read that article. I hope they track the assailant down and throw the book at him.

@lowlandlucky we've had a right wing, Tory government for the past 10 years Hmm cutting social services, police, education... I always find it mad that some people are happy for this to go one when, at the end of the day, they're still going to have to mix with the broken people this kind of society produces.

Hopefully he has it as well.

I won’t go as far as to say that I hope he didn’t survive,but if he didn’t I wouldn’t weep too much for him. Just for his family who were unfortunate enough to have spawned such lowlife.

For the last 2 decades or so the left wing have made sure that there is next to on discipline in schools

What is this, the MN version of "the last Labour government"? Your lot have been in power for ten years, love, why haven't you sorted things out by now?

I do think transport workers, who have carried on working throughout and lost so many, aren’t being given the public support and acknowledgment they deserve.

He can be charged with murder

He can be charged with murder

Anyone could be charged with anything. He won't be, and if he was he definitely wouldn't be convicted.

Transport workers have been let down by not allowing protection and she shouldn't have been working at all with underlying health conditions shame on them spitting should come with on the spot fine
Hope he doesn't get away with it
RIP
