Double amputee Afghan war veteran subjected to racist abuse at Tesco

A double amputee war veteran dubbed a 'real hero' by Prince Harry has revealed he was racially abused while shopping at Tesco. Former Royal Marine Commando Ben McBean faced the barrage of vile insults after visiting the supermarket for chocolate and beer. It came despite the motivational speaker having been praised and be-friended by the royal after he was badly injured in a landmine blast during the Afghan conflict in 2008. He was just 20 when he lost an arm and leg and was expected to die on the flight home which he shared with the prince. In a video posted on social media, the former serviceman revealed he was meeting his brother-in-law in the car park when he was told by an older woman to 'get the f*** out of my country'.
