Royally big mistake: Queen's representative quits after offensive comments about Pakistani community

Sabapathy, who is originally from Chennai, India, has notified Buckingham Palace of his intention to step down from the role which he has held for nearly eight years.

That should explain why he said that, a bitter jerk who was angry because he had to sit through Pakistan Independence day event, poor him.

...what he said is right..
But facts and truth is not appreciated...most of the time

Rich coming from a bharti.

Look at the body language of the two. Tells a lot about kind of person he is. I would not take his comments seriously. Such people are not worth taking seriously.

The Queen's representative in the West Midlands has resigned after emails containing controversial comments about the Pakistani community were leaked.

In the messages, Paul Sabapathy, the lord lieutenant for the region, is reported to have said there was a 'lot of work to do' to teach Pakistanis 'basic common courtesy and civility'.

The email reportedly said: 'They talk to themselves and do not engage with the wider community. They are living in the UK not Pakistan.

'Whilst being rightly proud of their Pakistani culture and heritage they need to explain better and engage more with their non-Pakistani brothers and sisters if they want their children to succeed as British Pakistani citizens.'

The Guardian added that he later apologised 'unreservedly and wholeheartedly for the offence I have caused to the Pakistani community and others'.

The email was apparently sent after he attended an event in Birmingham marking Pakistan Independence Day on August 14.

Sabapathy, who is originally from Chennai, India, has notified Buckingham Palace of his intention to step down from the role which he has held for nearly eight years.

A statement from the Palace said: 'We understand that Paul Sabapathy has informed the Cabinet Office of his decision to step down from his role as lord lieutenant in the West Midlands.

'The royal household would like to acknowledge the tremendous work done by Mr Sabapathy since his appointment in 2007 to support the work of the Royal Family and to bring together and work with the communities in the West Midlands.'

The main duties of lord lieutenants are to arrange and receive royal visits to the region, and present medals and awards on behalf of the Queen

Mr Sabapathy was born in 1942 and moved to Britain in 1964 where he qualified as a chartered management accountant. He worked for engineering firm IMI plc, retiring as assistant managing director of the subsidiary IMI Titanium in 1996.

In 2004, he was awarded a CBE for services to businesses and education in the West Midlands.

He was the first non-white person selected to take the role of lord lieutenant, whose first duty is to 'uphold the dignity of the Crown'.

The main duties of lord lieutenants are to arrange and receive royal visits to the region, and present medals and awards on behalf of the Queen.

Tell me, how have we not integrated? Oh, I forgot, we are Muslim we can never integrate! Even if we were born in the UK, spent almost our entire lives there and have a British passport, we are still not integrated!

Also, pretty hypocritical on your part, Indians in the UK aren't any more 'integrated' than us.

Now update ....Sadiq Khan is the Mayor of London
He already did. He is the one who revived the thread with post #25. Speaking of Indians any opportunity they get, they never refrain from taking a dig at Pakistani's and obviously this one fired back.....:sick:
