  • Video from 6pm on Tuesday shows woman ranting at London train passengers
  • Turns to a man on the phone and says, ‘Don’t tell me to bow down, you are dead’ 
  • Commuter angrily pushes the woman away while saying ‘don’t f*****g spit at me’

A train row exploded into violence when a stressed passenger lashed out at an out-of-control drunk woman who had been abusing passengers and calling him a ‘terrorist’.

Footage filmed at 6pm on Tuesday shows the commuter grabbing the woman and pushing her away after she ‘spat at him’ while leaning aggressively into his face as he was sitting down on his phone.

The woman had previously shouted ‘you’re dead’ at the man and threatened other London Overground passengers, before throwing a bottle of gin in his face as she got off.

Footage filmed by a bystander shows the woman threatening various passengers in the carriage during a discordant rant.

‘If you don’t like it, grab me by the f*****g throat,’ she says. ‘I know where I have to get off, but God help you when you f*****g get off.

‘And you, lovely lady, are going to go down with it as well, because England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales does not take kindly to threats throughout our own entire history.’

Turning to the man on his phone, she says: ‘Don’t tell me to bow down, you are dead…’

At this point he grabs the drunk and pushes her away, shouting ‘don’t f*****g spit in my face… spit in my face again and I’ll smash you.’

Uneake Henry, 32, a production travel manager who filmed the incident, told MailOnline: ‘I got on the train at Gospel Oak, she was drinking already and talking to a woman.

It came after she had threatened him and other passengers

‘She was so drunk, at first I thought they were friends but she kept following her and the other woman looked quite distressed.

‘At some point the man who confronts her in the video said he was going to call the police and she said “go on call the police I don’t care” and then she started calling him a terrorist.

‘After I stopped filming she threw the whole bottle of gin at the man.’

None of the passengers contacted the police, Mr Henry said.

Another source with knowledge of the incident said: ‘She was telling people to go back to their country.

‘She threw her whisky on someone and made them cry and get off the train.’
