	The British-Bangladeshi Professional Association: background (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Bangladeshis comprise one of the largest ethnic groups in the United Kingdom, yet they are portrayed in the media as a community suffering from poverty, high levels of unemployment and poor educational attainments.
		Bangladeshis are one of the most recent immigrant groups to settle in the UK.

	Given Bangladeshis work permits (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		But while pushing back the Bangladeshis, especially in the face of the audacious stand of Dhaka, may not be an easy task, the least that New Delhi can do is to ensure that further flow of illegals from Bangladesh is stopped forthwith.
		As for the problem of the Bangladeshis already in India, given the tough task involved in first identifying and then deporting them in the face of stiff resistance by Dhaka, the sensible option will be to introduce work permits for the illegals and to disenfranchise them so that they do not distort our democratic system.
		Now that the very-same Bangladeshis have become a security threat, it is hoped that the Congress Party of the Italian- born Antonio Sonia Gandhi will not object to the introduction of work permits for these aliens.

		Given extensive evidence of an "ethnic penalty" in employment,[542] the strength of anti-discrimination law is clearly an issue for the poverty of minority ethnic group children.
		This means that overall employment rates among these two groups are lower even than the unemployment figures indicate.[543] With such high levels of inactivity, households are limited in the number of potential workers available and therefore in the possibilities of avoiding poverty through work, especially in large households.
		Certainly, analysis of movement in and out of benefit indicates that Bangladeshis and Pakistanis both cluster round the poverty line and experience substantial insecurity in living and working that causes the fluctuations between receipt and non-receipt.[549] Insecurity in living and working may be as potentially difficult to manage as a fixed low income level.
