Re: Indo-UK News & Discussions- June 2017
I think the biggest con Western/European nations have managed to run is to make the rest of the world believe that Left (or right) has any power in these countries. They don't. If India has any sense, we should make Islamophobia a cornerstone of any deal made with Europeans. Make them open their bor...

Re: Indo-UK News & Discussions- June 2017
When you have time... Modi Rules. 8) That's a fair point but the issue I think is that the BBC/Guardians coverage is reported ad-nauseam in US, CA, Aus, Europe etc that the survey loses it's meaning.

Re: Indo-UK News & Discussions- June 2017
One thing that I could never figure out is what are the real-life consequences of bbc/wapo/guardian's news coverage? Is it just a bunch of people reading their articles and seething online over evil fascist Mudi or does the news coverage actually change anything on ground?

If US didn't want ropers or khalis to have the sort of influence that they do, we would see them getting the same sort of treatment by their media that's reserved for Hindus.
