Why do English born and bred "Indians" support India?

[Herr Tubthumper]

Good question, this one has not been done for a long long time.

The Pride debate must be up for its annual airing very very soon. Then maybe we can do the 'best curry house in Brighton' thread again.

Plenty of second generation English in Australia supported England in the ashes!.

And there is the answer!

Of course we did, i started it as i felt NSC wouldnt be the same without it ( although truth be told i think saints days are for the scotch and other chip on their shoulder small nations with a point to prove)

Oh yeah we had it. We also had the "Anyone else worried about our lack of activity in the transfer market?" threads (even before the transfer window opened), and no doubt soon we'll be having the annual 'Remembrance Day' bash.

Have we had the "Anyone worried about our pre-season results?" one yet? Seemed to have missed that or perhaps people were happy with 'only' beating the likes of Whitehawk 3-0. And I don't remember the annual summer "I'm sorry to say that NSC isn't as good as it used to be" thread.

Demanding people go "home" to their country of origin is nigh-on impossible once they have set up roots and established a family and career or job.

Which is why the countries in the Gulf are so smart. They give their "guest workers" permits so that they can come and live and work and earn money for a limited amount of time and then they have to return whence they came. The only way to deal with the situation now is to offer monetary inducements to move them out.

personally I'd rather see people with these kind of views shipped out. Different strokes!

Is it because Navajo's are better than their American occupiers?

Oh, the old Tebbitt test again! Much as I dislike the ultra right wing old former trade union (BALPA) leader, I think he wasn't far wrong on this. It is a generational thing, though - but when you start getting through to the third or fourth generation, it's a bit worrying if it doesn't happen. Descendants of Normans and Saxons call themselves English and / or British - integration worked particularly well there because old William the Conk knew a thing or two, and actively encouraged inter-marrying. Descendants of later waves of Jews and Huguenots now regard themselves as English - as do many descendants of POWs who opted not to be repatriated at the end of WW II.
If it doesn't eventually happen with later waves of immigrants, the future doesn't look good, and multi-culturalism, as opposed to integration, will have failed.
