A short while later, a white English friend joined the group and my friend and the others recounted the treatment they’d been receiving. No minimum, no main course required, nothing.” Similarly, I went to an Indian eatery the other day with a white friend and we ordered a single main dish to be shared between us. The waiter came and put down the main dish in front of my gora pal, putting a side plate in front of me. My friend then pushed the dish to the centre of the table and asked the man to get us another empty plate. This cross-national crippling is not down to any one megalomaniac small-town emperor, any single backward-looking political agenda or any single proclaimed ideology.
