Amazing.

 

 

 

Acquiring British citizenship does not make an Indian British. If I were to get Indian citizenship, do you think the media would refer to me as an Indian man?

No doubt they are the toughest and smartest people in the world.

Whatever, but how cool was he strolling out, checking his phone.

He was reported in all the UK news as British.

Hope this guy isn't a fan of the Final Destination movies?  🤔

Deja vu or what? Same topic same responses from just a week ago. Even the same language meant to create problems.

Why is this important to you in this context?

In the case of the sole survivor of the Air India crash, he is described as a British national of Indian origin, suggesting he has British citizenship and likely renounced Indian citizenship, since once becoming a British citizen he can not hold dual citizenship with India.

Indians have settled in the UK for many generations now, not uncommon to have British Indians.

Same goes for Americans, who are the Americans? The real Americans. Think before you write anything stupid

Yes, it does. What other countries call people who obtained citizenship is irrelevant.

 

 

I am little surprised by the number:

… yet the very video you posted referred to the ‘Air India survivor’….  & you still chose to go with Brit Survivor… 

 

That you referred to the surviving passenger solely as a ‘Brit’ is no

naive or innocent mistake of quoting British media…

To give a balanced frame of reference - how does that compare to other commonly flown aircraft types ?

Don't know but right now the B787-8 is very well known and just read about  same type landing in Scotland while squawking 7700 (in flight emegency) and an Air India of the same type turning back to Hong Kong after 90 mninutes of flight due to technical reasons (not sure if this was a declared emergency or not).

It always amazes me how dumb you are.

Air India refers to the plane line. 
Not that the gentleman was Indian. 
 

I don’t even understand why it is such an issue to all you bigots anyway.

The point is the absolute miracle survival and the mostly unscathed survival.

 

All you idiots want to talk about is he isn’t a “real” Brit.

Who has a British passport is married with kids in England and lives and works in Britain.

What is the “mistake” you are referring to?

Makes you proud to be British.Here is another example of British grit.

Hardly many generations, London was 98% white in the 1961 census. The bloke was from Leicester, white minority city, but only recently thanks to his lot.

Yet it doesn't amaze me - not even slightly - how consistently dumb your takes are. The sheer desperation with which you leap to idiotic conclusions in defence of your own trolling is laughable.

 

‘Air India Survivor’ refers to someone who survived an Air India crash - that has nothing to do with his passport. Just as the two crew members from the Jeju Air crash on 29 Dec are referred to as 'Jeju Air survivors' - because that’s the relevant context, not their birth certificates.

 

...But, nuance and common sense clearly aren’t part of your toolkit. You’d rather twist things into some warped bait-and-switch so you can cry foul and call everyone else a bigot. It’s tired, transparent, and pathetic.

Your transparent trolling is the issue - You deliberately prod and provoke just so you can play innocent then fling around accusations of bigotry. Referring to the Air India survivor as simply 'the Brit' isn’t some innocent shorthand - it’s a calculated move. You know full well it’ll stir a reaction, because he’s British-Indian, and you’re counting on that nuance being pointed out.

Not that it should matter - but that’s the whole point of your juvenile game: bait, wait, respond....

Agreed - his nationality is entirely irrelevant. Yet you deliberately used it to troll here, just as you did in an earlier thread. It’s a pattern with you: toss in a loaded label, wait for the reaction, then pretend to be shocked when people call it out. It’s not debate - it’s bait.

Agreed - he’s British and Indian, accurately described as a 'British-Indian dual national'... not that it’s remotely relevant to the fact he survived a horrific tragedy as the sole survivor.

 

But of course, it became relevant the moment you twisted it into bait - a calculated provocation. And like clockwork, when someone bites, you get exactly what you’re fishing for: a chance to pounce, playing the smug victim while lobbing insults, calling people idiots and bigots. It’s classic weasel-tier behaviour - bottom-feeding and cockroachey, but sadly predictable

Touchy touchy Indians

So dumb.

The whole world has reported him a Brit.

So I did also, I know how you love changing the facts around to suit your narrative all the time to give us your imagined versions of events.

What a plonker.

Are you ashamed that he British?
He doesnt fit you narrative of what a Brit looks like?
What is exactly your issue with the man? He isn’t white enough for you?

Screenshot?

Point is Richard seems to think I made this up.

I read mostly the British press, and they all wrote that he was British.

Richard might be embarrassed about him, but I am proud of my fellow Brit survivor, but to be honest cringe about the ugly Brits like Richard.

Actually yes it does, according to the Immigration Act. As for you getting Indian citizenship, apparently you'd need to give up your current citizenship. Seems India is ok with their citizens getting another passport, but anyone wanting to become Indian has to give up their current passport. Not fair. But I don't care as I would never want it...
