First of two programmes dealing with recent history. Asians in Leicester. In 1972, President Idi Amin of Uganda announced he was expelling the country's 40,000 Asians, giving them 90 days to leave. Many were British passport holders and had the right to come to Britain. Their preference was for Leicester where there was already an Asian community, yet Leicester didn't want them. The city council put an advertisement in a Ugandan newspaper, urging the Asians to stay away and everyone from the Bishop of Leicesterto the local newspaper agreed. The
National Front capitalised on the crisis and polled its highest-evervote in the 1976 council elections. Thirty years later, Leicester is on course to become Britain's first city with an ethnic majority.
