Sickening moment racist thug brands women wearing Islamic headscarves 'f***ing c***s' in vile rant as he abuses and threatens them while they walk down the street

This is the sickening moment a racist thug abuses and threatens a group of women wearing Islamic headscarves as they walk down a street.

Mobile phone footage shows the man following the women down South Street in Romford, labelling them as 'f***ing c***s'' in a string of vile racist and Islamophobic slurs.

He can be heard calling them 'Muslim c****' and telling them to 'f*** off out of England'.

He says: 'You Muslim f***ing c****. You're c****. Muslim c****. You f****** Muslim s***. Go away you f***ing idiots.'

One of the group asks him to stop and tells him that he is 'being racist', but this does not stop him from continuing his barrage of abuse.

He continues: 'Harassing? We don't like you. F*** off back to Muslim c******.

'We are a Christian country and we don't f***ing like you. F*** off out of England. You are a cancer on our country. F***off. You are a cancer. We are a Christian country and we don't like you. we are not a Muslim country.'

Redbridge Community Action Group, a London-based charity, posted the footage onto social media to help try and identify the culprit.

Writing on X, formally known as twitter, they said: 'Help @metpolice identify this sick racist earlier today in Romford!

'WATCH as this coward physically threatens and subjects a group of women with his vile, horrific, racist and Islamophobic slurs. We stand with them in solidarity! Internet, please do your thing!'

The video has garnered a lot of online attention, with many people commenting in support of the women subjected to the abuse. 

One wrote: 'Absolutely dreadful. I am so sorry those women were subjected to that, and well done the brave woman who kept him at bay. Just sorry no members of the public came to help.' 

Another wrote: 'That's absolutely disgusting and completely unacceptable, this racist scum needs to be identified and prosecuted and sent to prison. The police should be able to identify and charge him from the pictures.'

A third wrote: 'Shameful and horribly intimidating for those poor women. Deeply worrying that for some, 'Christian values' entail dehumanising, othering, and harassing our neighbours.' 

MailOnline have approached the Metropolitan Police for a comment.
