How many times do those of us who are British freepers have to explain what Asian means in the UK before people take it in?.

I dont know

Does it matter that much ???

If I was wrong then you have corrected me

However over the years, whenever I have seen an “Asian” mentioned in the British press, the person was usually a Moslem from Pakistan or the Middle East...

It irked me that the guy was called an “Asian”

Being from the British Commonwealth, Asian to me was China, Japanese, Far Eastern area..

It appears thats changed somewhat..
