A mother and her two-month-old infant were allegedly asked off a public bus in the New Zealand capital of Auckland, after a passenger complained at the sight of the woman breastfeeding her baby.

Jamie Deane, 24, told Stuff that as a result she was forced to walk 20 minutes to her destination with a fussy baby in sweltering temperatures.
