    In fact I read somewhere (and it could have been here but more likely the DM) that the Indian govt is actively looking at offloading a few million of its citizens.
    Feck they have over a billion.

    Oh and that's one of the reasons I voted Remain.

      If the British govt does this it will be a fatal mistake. Well, as they say, you reap what you sow

          And all the Indians I worked with at Accenture voted Brexit.

            So the Indians you worked with were actually British. They either had ancestral passports, where born here -moved back to India to be educated and moved here again - , or just moved over as adults and nationalised hence they haven't lost their accents.

            Maybe you should talk to people nicely and with interest - food is always a good starting point as they love (laughing) at non-Indian people trying to cook their cuisine - so you can find out their backgrounds.
