You could argue for maybe a confederal solution
but the Pakis clearly don want it
"Once the lines were established, about 14.5 million people crossed the borders to what they hoped was the relative safety of religious majority. The 1951 Census of Pakistan identified the number of displaced persons in Pakistan at 7,226,600, presumably all Muslims who had entered Pakistan from India."
The Raj was a British creation anyway
it was just a colony
its boundaries did not represent local, historical baoundaries
or ethnic
Exactly
or any other
Hence we have massive issues in the ME today
yes
Brits also pitted the minorities against one another to some extent
As a means to facilitate staying in power
Keep them fighting each other and not us.
ye
s'hard to account for what impact that had long term though
Well that wasn't taken into consideration
Because it was assumed, more troops could be stationed there
The Parsis were very much used by the Brits, yet they are entirely fine and no one minds them.
Ah
It wasn't assumed we would be pulling out
Or disbanding the empire
sure
I'm somewhat confused by the Sargonites meming about how Britain can just trade with the Commonwealth after it leaves the EU. Surely the biggest market there is India and I cannot imagine they are that interested in opening themselves again for privileged British merchants...
Both India and the UK want more economic growth
India wants it, so it can *try* compete with China
The UK wants it to stay afloat
literally everyone wants more economic growth, other then some weirdo extremists
Most of the idiots on here that are anti EU cheered when we voted to leave
They're also the people to complain about immigration from """Asia"""
Yet they fail to realise that us leaving the EU will mean increasing immigration from """Asia"""
lol yes
Importing MORE people they despise into the country
I've met plenty of Poles and a few Romanians
They're alright
it's a choice between Romanians and Pakis I'm afraid
They work hard and they're not scum
Pakis on the other hand
Are like a growing cancer who despise us
