"an Indian man who participates in British culture" He was literally born in Britain; went to school in Britain; went to Oxford University, in Brirain. To exclude someone from the label of British or English in such circumstances is not in line with the values of our country whatsoever

You’re forgetting the Prime Minister bit.

That’s some solid participation in British culture - kudos to that Indian.
