Hindus most willing to fight for Britain
A survey has found that Indians and other South-Asians living in Britain are more willing to fight for the country compared with the national average. And Hindus were the most willing candidates.According to the survey, 43 percent of Asians said that they were willing to join the British armed forces, compared with 37 percent for the general non-Asian population.
Hindus were the most willing at 56 percent, followed by 51 percent of Sikhs, while 34pc of Muslims say they would take up arms in defence of Britain, said the poll.

Not surprised at all that Hindus are the most willing. The Hindus wish to build a better Britain.
Islam wants to kick it to the stone age like Afghanistan, Pakistan etc.etc.

That poll doesn’t make since is it sure 35% of muslims want to fight for england, plus 500 people taking down their opinions doesn’t really count for anything because islam will say anything. Only way to find out is by checking the number of ppl who tried signing up with the british army not the amount of people who say they would because anyone can say they’ll fight for their country but when time comes no action. Only way to find out is by checking the amount of people who try inlisting into the british army from each community. 1% of asians in the british army while so many say they would fight doesn’t mean their is racism against who they let in if your in shape got good eye sight good record you can get in because i have friends who inlisted.
Reasion being not so many asians are in the army is because their parants wouldn’t allow them and alot of asians are just to soft they need their moms their at all times.

I’d be interested to know where the figure of “1% of asians in the british army” as quoted above by ’sikh’ came from? Many thanks in advance.
