Mumbai Jumbo..

My goodness, Mr Cameron sucking up to the Indians like they're his new best friends.  Of course the British were very interested in India a couple of hundred years ago, but I reckon the times have changed since then.  I wonder what the ordinary Indian in the street thinks about it?  ..if there is such as thing as an 'ordinary Indian'.  There seems to be a gaping chasm between the haves and the have nots, so much that finding an average must be really difficult - and then when you think you have found an 'average' whats the betting he's a weirdo like much of the interviewed in the UK?  You know the sort - the ones that when they see a microphone, they simply refer back to the latest article thay have read/seen on the subject and imagine they invented that particular point of view.  It's not that I wouldn't be the same, but I would not volunteer my thoughts on a subject in that way.  Then there's the Look North street interviews when they pick on anyone passing - usually a granny, a couple of students and an unemployed fellow in his 20s that have the bad luck to be passing.  These types usually couldn't give a toss about the subject but have to say something after being accosted by the 'roving reporter'.  Being caught unawares by 'what do you think about the closure of your local rabbit shop?' or similar, they are then forced to say the first thing that comes into their head such as 'I didn't know we had a rabbit shop', or 'I never use it myself' which is then broadcast to the local public as if it was representative of everyone living nearby.  As far as I remember, I have never seen them ask an Indian.
