Morrisons worker screams racist abuse at customer in shocking supermarket rant

A Morrisons worker has been caught on camera hurling racist abuse at a customer.

The incident is believed to have taken place at a store in Palmers Green, London, with the clip circulating on social media on Friday.

As the video begins, the customer is seen being held back by security as a woman off camera shouts at him.

The Morrisons employee can be heard saying: "All I said to you was turn the card over you stupid f***ing c*** ."

The black customer responds: "They are going to have to sack you."

The employee shrieks back: "Come and hit me, hit me, then I can take you to f***ing court you c*** ".

The woman, dressed in a green Morrisons uniform, then storms towards the man as a co-worker fails to restrain her as she continues to scream "Hit me".

Astounded shoppers can be seen watching as the Morrisons employee's rant turns racist as she shouts: "Hit me you f***ing p***k, you black c***".

Loud gasps can be heard as shocked bystanders cringe at the woman's racist remarks as she continues to berate the man.

The woman continues to threaten: "I'll get someone to come and hurt you, you're going to hate me. You don't know who I am you p***k ".

More of the woman's co-workers surround her as they struggle to contain their irate colleague.

The woman finishes her rant by saying: "I'm sick and tired of everybody abusing me, that's what I'm sick and tired of."

"I come off my holiday and everytime I come in this store someone's going to mentally abuse me."

The video was posted to Facebook with the caption "Morrisons staff calling a customer black c*** absolutely shocking."

The clip has stunned social media users.

Gina Johnstone wrote: "I've had bad days in customer service but never used that as an excuse to unload verbal abuse against a customer."  

Elish Gleeson wrote: "Wow that's not on, I hope to god she got the sack."

And one Twitter user reposted the video, saying: "Morrisons can someone let us know if this vile racist piece of s*** has been fired yet? Palmers Green store!"

A Morrisons spokesman told Mirror Online: "The individual in question no longer works for Morrisons." 

The spokesman declined to confirm whether the woman was sacked or quit.
