It's her choice to bring her whingeing brat onto public transport. I
had no other choice of seat, and precious little standing space.

a) Why is someone else's child automatically a "whingeing brat"

b) Was it not equally *your* choice to use public transport?

c) What about, as I saw yesterday evening, when a middle-class father
brings *his* child on to a bus in an unfolded pushchair? I suppose
*he's* a "chav slapper" and the articulate, intelligent 19-month-old
is a "whingeing brat"? Yes?

I hate to tell you, but your prejudices are showing.

So are mine, because I agree with Ian all the way!

You should be ashamed of yourself.
