A shocking video of a woman making racist comments on a tram as she cradles a toddler has become an internet hit - and led to an official investigation by the British Transport Police.

Over 10,000 people have viewed footage (containing strong language) uploaded to Youtube on Sunday of a brunette middle-aged women swearing and telling people to "go back to your f**king countries".

She complains "Britain is f**k all" as she cradles a blonde child on her lap.

And she screams "f**k you" when a black woman asks her to get off the tram.

"I'm English, what have you got to say to me, f**k all, so shut your mouth."

The user who posted it said the video was of a "British woman on London transport complaining that Britain is nothing now that ethnic minorities are in her country".

Users were disgusted by anonymous woman's two-minute tirade, and posted comments about "that poor kid".

One remarked: "She speaks worse English than any of the people she was ranting at!"

The British Transport Police said in a statement on Monday they refused to "tolerate racism": "A 34-year-old woman from New Addington was arrested on suspicion of a racially aggravated public order offence."
