WE were leaving Tesco on Middlebrook on Monday, when a family passed us with tiny twin girls.

My granddaughter said ' look twins!'

A woman came up behind me and made a derogatory remark about the mother.

I said 'I bet she isn't and quite frankly that is a racist comment!'

She saw that I was a similar age to her and presumed I was a bigot like her.

Well no, I am proud of our multicultural country and long may it continue!
