Gareth Thomas, MP for Harrow East, announces the formation of ‘all party parliamentary group of British Gujaratis’ (APPG) in the UK parliament’.
“The APPG will provide the Gujarati community with an opportunity to engage with politicians on matters such as health and wellbeing, education, social and cultural needs, immigration, bilateral trade with the state of Gujarat in India, and economic development in the UK” said the co-chair of the group Gareth Thomas (Lab). The other co-chair of the group is Harrow East MP Blackman (Con)!
The REACH (Race, Ethnicity And Culture Heritage) India, fostering a positive image of India, was quick to point out the divisive nature of the vote-grabbing initiative:
Moreover, contrary to what the APPG suggests, the Gujarati community in India or in the UK is not made up of Hindus only.
In trying to justify why the Gujaratis need specific representation, Thomas press release highlights that the Gujaratis are well established in the UK – they became doctors, accountants, solicitors, pharmacists, engineers etc’and that ‘there is hardly any sector, which has been untouched by the Gujarati community’.
Wonder if non-Gujaratis like Rishi Sunak (PM) or Suella Braverman (Home Secretory) would need specific representation because of their treatment for being who they are?
Interesting that political opportunism has no political divide line, and in hunting for the same ground, red merges to blue in exploiting Gujarati nationalism for political gains.
Such are the harmonious relationships between a Harrow Labour MP and a Tory MP that they have calculated their votes, and Harrow East and West territories are well-marked with apparent cosy arrangements whereby Tories don’t put a strong candidate in Harrow West, and the Labour do the same in Harrow East, as the outcome of the selection for Labour parliamentary candidate for Harrow East would confirm this Saturday!

Harrow Monitoring Group 
Assuming that it will not be mandatory for members of this new group of Gujaraatis to be wearing dhotis & lungotis when meeting or campaigning & be ready for action , Cruella Braverman (Home Secretory!) & Gungadin Sunak could be opted in as observers & advisers to this bizarre & divisive group with distant & tenuous links to Mother India!
As for weak or maybe hopeless candidates being put up conviniently in the Harrow East & West Parliamentary seats, the Member for Harrow East must be giggling & laughing his head off as he rushes to mark his seat permanently in the House of the People & with luck!

As said, Labour has picked up a candidate who is no match to the divisive sitting MP, Blackman!
