I was just wondering how people who live in countries that used to be part of the British Empire feel towards the British. I was especially interested in the attitudes of people living in India or Pakistan as we were largely responsible for the partition. I know it is unlikely that there is anyone on this forum that is from that part of the world but maybe there are some Muslims or Hindus (even Sihks) who can help me out.
Cheers
