A British Subject

`I adore the diversity found in Britain, from the different street cuisines to the festivals that light up our high streets. Yet I have always thought that in return for this variety, we must always respect and adopt the British values, traditions and culture around us. This is the sort of tolerant and inclusive Britain we want, not communities living separate lives, isolating themselves and their children. When all communities come together, barriers come down and diversity can be truly celebrated.' A love letter to his adopted country, A British Subject tells the story of Dolar Popat, who fled Idi Amin's Uganda and who, from humble beginnings, became extremely successful in both commerce and politics in Great Britain. This is the powerful and thought-provoking account of his first years in Britain in the 1970s, when he worked in a fast-food restaurant, through his building multiple businesses, to his current activity as a politician in the House of Lords. Full of life lessons and business wisdom, this is a multi-layered book for all those who find themselves crossing boundaries of identity. At its core is the importance of asserting a genuine loyalty to Britain.
