Remember the racist old fossils who verbally abused and physically assaulted a Filipino nurse in Manor Health Park, Halifax, last summer? Here’s a reminder:

As per the BBC, 72-year-old Fyona Bairstow and 77-year-old Michael Bairstow pleaded guilty to racially aggravated assault this week. Here they are looking very sheepish indeed as they try to hide their faces outside Bradford Magistrates Court:

Their victim, Apple Moorhouse, from Huddersfield, has worked for the NHS for 12 years and been a British resident for 15 years. She told MailOnline that the incident kicked off after the couple ‘found it funny that that their dog was making my daughter uncomfortable’.
After Moorhouse asked that the dog be put on a lead, the old man told her to “shut up, f*** off and go back to where you came from on the dinghy boat.”
The court also heard that Michael Bairstow had told his dog to “get her, kill”, and threw a bottle of water towards Moorhouse, splashing her, while saying: “Ban immigrants.”

Moorhouse’s statement, read out in court, said: “When I tried to walk away the female pulled me back by my ponytail, causing my head to go backwards. They were very racist towards me – they seemed to want to make everything a conversation about immigrants – and calling me a slave.”
The court heard how another woman intervened to defend Moorhouse, only for Bairstow to punch her in the face and say: “Sticking up for immigrants, who do you think you are?”
So sad to think that such braindead, nasty old racists exist in Britain these days, and what makes it even worse is that Filipinos are the friendliest people in the world! Not to mention they make the best nurses. These old freaks must be genuinely sick in the head to be racially abusing a person who could very well be the last face they see before they leave this Earth.

In the end, the couple were bailed with conditions not to go to Manor Heath Park or contact Apple Moorhouse. They will return to court to be sentenced on April 15.
