Secretary warned she may face jail over racist tube rant

Jacqueline Woodhouse, 42, from Romford, Essex, was today warned that she may face jail after verbally abusing fellow passengers on the Central Line in February. [Watch video HERE]

The seven-minute clip was captured by Galbant Singh Juttla who was making his way home from a funeral at the time. Police launched the investigation against Ms Woodhouse after the video of the verbal assault was uploaded to YouTube, where it has since been viewed more than 200,000 times.

Today, appearing at Westminster Magistrate's Court, the secretary and personal assistant admitted causing harassment alarm and distress to the man who filmed her.

Woodhouse's outburst included saying to fellow passengers "I used to live in England, now I live in the United Nations", "Where do you come from? Where do you come from? Where do you come from?"

The case continues.
