Just heard @kushal_mehra on @Abhina_Prakash channel. His observation on British Indians move to Conservatives over this millennium is an understated but important event for
and diaspora. An organic evolution over the years but special mention @David_Cameron' efforts (1)

No surprises that Churchill's hatred for
handicapped the Tories for decades - not just desis, but among all ethnics. Tories viewed akin to GOP until noughties - party for whites (minus guns and abortion). Labour had to just show up to win minority votes (2)

When you en-masse vote for one party, over time the party doesn't care - post 9/11, as with all centre-left parties, islamic appeasement on steriods
anti-hindu/india sentiments
sideline indian origin members
continue treating
as basket case despite roaring economy (3)




Tories not into divisive politics - pro business/trade and being pragmatists embraced this opportunity and Cameron regime pivotal in this engineering project among british Indians and also building positive relationship with GOI (4)
The seeds were sown by the Cameron regime and today's we are seeing the success of Priti Patel and Rishi Sunak. Special mention to @BobBlackman who has done yeoman's service from Harrow for both
and British Hindus (5)

Primary reason for Tories success with Indians is they understand the aspiration of our folks. We don't migrate to be on the dole - we want to work, rise up corporate ladder and build business and make

Lessons here for the Republicans but IMO they are still in 70s wrt indian americans and don't think they are interested in cultivating asian/indian Americans. Will be a strategic blunder in long term (End)
