A woman aggressively launched into an antisemitic rant while on a London bus, in a moment captured on camera,

The woman, who has not been named, declared "only Jews eat at McDonald's" in a violent rant at others onboard.

The footage was taken on Armistice Day in London, the same day 300,000 people marched through central London in a pro-Palestine protest.

A passenger was on board the evening London bus with her husband discussing McDonald's chips. She claims that she heard someone shout "only Jews eat McDonald's".

In the footage, the woman then asks someone: "Are you a Jew?". After spotting she is being filmed by someone on the bus, she takes a swipe at a woman's phone.

She then directs her anger at another passenger who tried to stop her from walking towards another man.

The woman is heard in the video saying: "Why are you touching me fam?' I'll smash your glasses into your eyes, bro. I'll smash your glasses into your eyes, bro."

In the footage a man is heard saying telling her what she has said is offensive, while another tells her to get off the bus.

The short video ends as she slumps onto a chair waving both her hands in air and saying: "Get me off the bus, bro."

An eyewitness who took the footage said: "It is not safe to be a Jew in London right now.

"We are experiencing everything that we were warned about as children."

"This weekend in London, Jewish homes have been graffitied, people had to be escorted by police whilst leaving Synagogue and posters have been waved that would have been proudly held up in 1930s Germany.

"Each bus or train journey becomes increasingly intimidating, making us question if this is a place we can continue to call home.

"To my non-Jewish friends and colleagues - please understand that this is the reality for Jewish people right now. Please do not look away. Please do not stay silent. Please reach out to your Jewish friends, talk to them, listen to them.

"And if and when you witness incidents like this - please, please, speak up. Because despite there being lots of other people on the bus, only one other person confronted her.

"And I was scared. This is a route I take daily, and while I had my husband with me this time, I can't help but wonder who would stand up for me if I were alone?"
