It was shocking news for the Indian community in Britain. The most influential British Indian Politician was ousted from the government in an unceremonious way international development secretary Priti Patel was recalled from her Uganda trip and forced to submit her resignation for breaching the ministerial code of conduct .what a fall just a few days back she was sort of in the shoes of Prime Minister Theresa May to welcome guests at No 10 Downing Street to celebrate Diwali We thought a Prime Minister in waiting A proud moment for the 1.5 million indian origin british citizens we are getting closer and closer to the epicentre of british power former prime minister david cameron's prophecies will become a reality very soon but that hope was shattered. Patel a former indian diaspora champion and pravasi bharatiya puraskar awardee became a victim of her own actions surprisingly nobody was there mourn for her neither any party colleagues like MP Alok Sharma or the influential conservative friends of india her departure won't affect india's influence in the power corridors because the post Brexit britain needs india more than india needs britain. Patel was hiding behind the Ministerial code of Ethics when india was humiliated by pro pakistani members of parliament over the kashmir issue she never supported repeated calls from indian leaders to relax visa rules for indian students patel even campaigned to tighten the visa rules for foreign chefs at curry houses that caused the closure of hundreds of restaurants across the country she was silent when hundreds of immigrants were racially abused on the streets just after the EU referendum who cares about immigrants when they are not part of your constituency with a majority of 27,000 plus votes patel was quite comfortable with her agenda she burned all her bridges to fulfil a personal agenda to reach no 10 india was on the back burner whereas israel and its powerful lobby with plenty of money at its disposal came on the agenda indians are top on the british rich list but they will think twice to open their cheque book some of them are already in trouble over political donations for personal favours
