"Talking to my parents over the last week they're telling me they don't feel like this is their country any more. Both of them live in a rural area, the two nearest decent sized towns are about 10-15k people, Indians are taking over the service stations and taxi businesses, and Chinese are making in roads on the eateries. Meanwhile the level of unemployment remains high for people born there. Talking with a bunch of different people from different age groups I think anyone who doesn't have their head in the clouds feels like something is going to break soon"
