Stagecoach in 'urgent probe' over claims bus drivers are refusing to pick up refugees

A popular bus company has launched an 'urgent investigation' over claims that some of their drivers have reportedly refused to pick up 'black or brown men'.

Asylum seekers have gone on to claim that drivers from Stagecoach were "not picking up refugees" who were trying to take public transport from their accommodation in North Somerset to Bristol.

On October 2, the accusations came to light when a local resident took to social media to claim that the buses were refusing to allow asylum seekers on board, who were staying in the Holiday Inn at Bristol Airport.
