A woman has been arrested in connection with the racist abuse of two Muslim women on a London bus, after video footage of the incident went viral on social media.

In the clip, the woman, who has a child with her, repeatedly refers to the group as “ISIS b*****s” and tells them to ‘go back to their own country.
‘I don’t f***ing like you people because you’re f***ing rude.
“You come to England and you have no f*****g manners”.
The video, apparently filmed on the 206 bus in north London, shows a woman shouting at the group of women.
Mico Abrigo uploaded the video to his Facebook page and it’s now been viewed nearly 800,000 times.
Incredibly, the child with her asks her what is happening and she shouts: “What happened?”
Things got even weirder when she tried to involve the baby accompanying her in the pram by explaining her how ISIS got into the United Kingdom.
She is also heard issuing physical threats, including: “I will kick you in the uterus so you never have kids again”.
Shortly afterward the bus driver stopped the vehicle, although after an unsuccessful intervention, the woman started up her rant again, taking out her phone and recording her targets.
“You’re lucky I don’t work for immigration”.
“Passengers who use our services should be allowed to do so without fear of abuse and we are working closely with Metroline and the police to fully investigate this incident”.
Detectives from the Brent Safer Transport team are continuing to investigate the argument, which broke out as the bus travelled along Knatchbull Road at about 10.30am on Tuesday.

Anyone who has information that may help the investigation, or who was on the bus at the time, has been asked to contact the Met police or Crimestoppers.
