Comedian Rosie Jones has said a plastic wine bottle was thrown at her and a friend in an ableist and homophobic attack on a train. In the video, Jones said they had thrown wine at her and added: “What a f****** waste.”On Monday, Jones posted a message to social media celebrating World Cerebral Palsy Day and said: “Today was going to be about me celebrating all that is good and brilliant about having CP. They mocked our voices, shouted slurs at us and even threw a wine bottle (plastic, thankfully). “People with cerebral palsy should never be made to feel like guests in an unwelcoming and hostile world which wasn’t set up for people like us. Rosie Jones is a wonderful human.”In 2023 Jones explored the prevalence of disability trolling in the UK in a Channel 4 documentary that received criticism for its title – Rosie Jones: Am I A R*tard?
