Britain's current handout culture something that was better back then I assume?

Please have a look at the income of Indian families in the UK/US relative to other ethnic groups. Asian culture emphasizes a strong work ethic. It's not just Indians with this one.

Importing Indians doesn't count. Did they import the work ethic to the other people living in Britain?

If the actual Indian families have higher income, it sounds like you're saying the answer is no...

Importing Indians does count 1), 2) labour pricing does affect everyone else in the market. A hard working labour pool forces others to compete.

The Indians part seems irrelevant from what you're saying. It seems you think British people are lazy?

When the question is what things British culture has absorbed from Indian culture, only things that have gone mainstream count, not things that are exclusive to immigrant communities.

What? Not at all. I have no idea how lazy British people are. I was reacting to your statement that I should "Please have a look at the income of Indian families in the UK/US relative to other ethnic groups." That implies that there is a significant difference between mainstream culture and Indian immigrant culture.
