Following the ‘cook a pot of curry’ crisis in Singapore where we all stood up for our fellow national by cooking a pot of curry from our households in order to support the right to cook curries at home, Britain now faces a bigger issue with curry. At the recent British Curry Awards held in Britain, more than 40,000 nominations poured in from fans of this delightful dish. Prime Minister David Cameron took the centre stage to declare that the once foreign dish should now be a vital one to British identity. This statement was made to awaken the senses of the people to abandon their racist comments. However, Mr Cameron’s favourite curry house was raided due to suspicions of immigration infractions. All due to the strict laws making it almost impossible for restaurants to bring in chefs from India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. Perhaps they should all start the ‘cook a pot of curry’ campaign as well.
