UK MP Rupert Lowe has sparked controversy after making anti-migration remarks targeting people of Indian and Pakistani origin in Britain, despite the apparent risk of being labelled racist.
Independent MP Lowe claimed that “millions of Pakistanis and Indians” are being brought to the UK to take up jobs that, according to him, should instead go to unemployed Britons.
He wrote on X: "I don't believe we should import millions of Pakistanis and Indians to do jobs that unemployed Brits should be doing."
“If that makes me racist, then so be it,” he added.
