Concerns raised over Channel 4 documentary ‘Make Leicester British’

'Make Leicester British', which aired Monday, brought together eight residents of Leicester - four of them British citizens, the others recent migrants to the city.
The show is produced by the same people behind 'Make Bradford British', which won widespread critical acclaim but was criticized by politicians and members of the public in Bradford for showcasing the city as one which is deeply divided between white Britons and predominantly South Asian immigrants.
Leicester Councillor Sundip Meghani said he is concerned about the way the programme will portray community relations in the city, home to one of the largest Indian Diaspora communities in the world. "For one thing the trailer begins with the following statement: 'In one of Britain’s most diverse cities immigration polarises opinion.' Most of us in Leicester know this is a lie."
Mr Meghani said in a blog post on his website: “It’s disappointing but unsurprising that Channel 4 regularly broadcasts controversial programmes such as this. Channel 4 would have us believe they are a bastion of liberal media (but) in reality Channel 4 is a commercial organisation and in the end it all comes down to profits and advertising revenues. It is extremely offensive for the programme makers and for Channel 4 to suggest our city is not British, or that our ‘Britishness’ has somehow been diluted by the arrival of immigrants."
