'I have so many disgusting comments made to my baby'
Lydia Germon is two years old and has complex disabilties. Her appearance made her the victim of hate crime whilst at the supermarket.
Lydia's mum Bethan filmed her reaction to the incident once they got home, saying "I've had enough of people in supermarkets... having a pop at my baby".
Bethan can't believe that she has to put up with this type of crime, saying "I really, really thought we were over discriminating people. But clearly we're not".
