I was at Swansea Bus Station today with my friend’s family, seeing someone off, and had a pretty unpleasant experience.
A couple of teenage boys who were hanging around started making racist comments towards us. I confronted them, but there wasn’t much I could do because I was with my friend’s family and didn’t want the situation to escalate as it was their first time visiting UK.
A little while later, the same lads started verbally abusing one of the cleaning staff because she wouldn’t let them use the toilets, which were closed. She was literally just doing her job.
It genuinely made me wonder, what’s with these groups of kids hanging around the bus station? Is this a regular thing? It seems like they just spend their time intimidating people and causing trouble. Fair play to the cleaning lady for staying calm, but it was frustrating to see. Has anyone else experienced this around the bus station recently?
