British woman has claimed her shopping trip to Nice was 'spoiled' when a terrorist gunman killed 84 people and seriously injured 50 more after he drove a 25-tonne lorry into crowds celebrating Bastille Day.

The tourist, named as Lucy Nesbitt-Comaskey, told Sky News: 'Maybe this is awful and maybe a bit selfish but it did spoil our shopping trip. 'We bought all this lovely shopping and now I can’t be bothered with it. It doesn’t mean anything now,' she said.

On Friday morning,Nesbitt-Comaskey issued a grovelling apology for her remarks via Facebook. She claimed that she was understandably 'in shock' at the time after witnessing the horrific events and misspoke while speaking to journalists.

I was listening to Sky News when she was being interviewed. I did not hear those words, but her attitude came though loud and clear.

Sorry sanctimonious, selfish bitch. Apology not accepted.

These are the times when our true characters are revealed. She is ugly to the core. Ain't no maybe about it.

Are we sure this isn’t a promo for the new “Absolutely Fabulous” movie?

I’m sure her “ thoughts and prayers” are with the victims and their families, just like obama’s

This a characteristic traumatic stress reaction. And it seems to me the "sanctimony" lies with those who would sit safely across the ocean and judge this woman for her initial reaction. And wasn't it Bush after 9/11 who said something to the effect that we shouldn't let terror disrupt our lives and that we "should go shopping?"

Yes. And she’s abjectly apologized. Thanks media but find someone else for today’s ritual humiliation.

It wouldn’t surprise me one bit to hear these words from the mouth of Hillary.

LOL! Kinda. I did hear her say it and hopefully, she’ll regret saying it the rest of her days. She probably missed out on a sale of loubuiton shoes. Poor thing. How dare some islamic terrorist assclown interrupt my shopping. The nerve. Some people.

I have no word to fully describe my loathing for this woman and others who are so wrapped up in their own selves, they have no sense of the suffering of others.

They spend their entire lives as the center of their own universe. In her world a terrorist exists only when It is not all about her.

I didn’t see her interviewed, so I didn’t see her demeanor. I’m wondering if she realized how meaningless her shopping excursion was in light of the terrorist attack. Maybe, however inelegantly, she inadvertently learned a lesson. Maybe not.

I’m not wishing ill on this woman (I didn’t say lady), but her time of dodging muzzie-driven death trucks on London streets is coming.

I too listened to Sky news on the live feed and I did hear her say that very clearly at the end of her rambling account.

She said it, she owns it.
