Lol @ heads saying london isnt top 2 selected. London is one of the best cities.

[Francis Coquelin]

I'm talking about their representation in the opening ceremony, especially when compare it to how disproportionately over represented we were.

Seems quite odd to highlight the 'Windrush' but not the influx of Asians in the 50s, 60s and 70s as well. (If they did I missed it. And in that case, disregard everything I've said.)

Let's not forget they make up a larger percentage of the population than blacks in Newham, London and the UK as a whole. Not to mention all the doctors, small businesses they own, and impact they've had on the British diet.

They pissed all over you lads tonight.

Yeah, I was only looking up every now and again but I didn't really see any asian stuff. Think I heard some Bhangra mix after/before the Dizzee tune though.

Surprised as well, considering Danny Boyle did Slumdog - you'd think he'd have great ideas for how to incorporate Asian culture. Or maybe it was part of the segment that got cut out?
