I've read previously that India expects the UK to concede unlimited access to the UK's universities for Indian nationals in return for any agreement on trade. So it would not be a surprise

Just like the 1960's. I wonder how long it will take for "rivers of blood " Mark 2 to surface?

The difference nowadays is that India, China and other parts of the Asia continent are where it's all happening, economically.

India is in a strong position to extract concessions from the UK. The UK position is relatively weak.

It would be a mistake to confuse an India subjugated by imperial Britain with the strong, dynamic and independent India of today.

I am sure that ardent Brexiters who claimed that the vote was “never about immigration” will love this news.

That's true but it would also be an even bigger mistake to believe that the people who voted BREXIT to stop EU immigration will not treat immigrants from India any better than they did when they were, or recently had been, subjects of Britain.

Can you quote anyone on here that has said they voted brexit to specifically reduce non-white immigration?

Because people would like to see lower immigration, or immigration controlled, does not make them racist.

Does that make the population of Canada, a country with permissive but controlled immigration, racist?

I don't label all people who voted leave as racists and I don't believe that all people who voted leave are racist. In fact the last time that I remember commenting on this I'm pretty sure I said I don't think all or even most BREXITers are racist but if only 2 in 50 where then that was enough racist support to give them the victory and that I am pretty sure that at least 2 in 50, if not more, are.

People who are pissed off with white immigration, are going to be even more passed off with non-white immigration.

It's estimated that approx 2 million of leave votes were from the BAME sector.

They voted 2 to 1 Remain though.

It's important to distinguish between immigration, which is a legitimate topic of debate and policy, and discrimination, i.e. when it's about people of a certain ethnicity or colour.

Could well be. Don't you remember the completely rubbish trade mission that Hammond did to India last year? Where he basically came back with sod all apart from being told that Indian nationals would want freer entry to the UK as part of any trade deal.

The Indian PM did make all this clear as to what he expected in return for free trade a few months after the vote and we started begginf, or was it laxer visa regulation on Indian students staying here after graduating? If amshe he's turning up the heat.

Ah well prepare for manufacturing being outsourced more to the subcontinent and greater labour market saturation if we conceed.

So 80,000 racists from BAME then?
