LONDON (Reuters) - A few months after Britain voted to leave the European Union, Maria was waiting to see a doctor at a London hospital when an elderly English woman told her to go back to her native Romania.
"You are a foreigner," Maria, who was heavily pregnant at the time, recalls the woman saying. "Your place is not here."
