In this video, Firstpost explains the debate over Indians ‘stealing’ jobs in the UK. Indians make up 3.1 per cent of the British population but contribute over 6 per cent of the UK’s GDP. Indian nationals held around 1.029 million payroll jobs in the UK by December 2025, with Indians playing a major role in healthcare, technology, engineering, care and other sectors. The video also looks at the contribution of Indian-owned businesses, which generated over $90 billion in revenue and paid more than $1.58 billion in corporation tax in 2024. Firstpost examines the arguments around immigration, qualifications, employment and Britain’s ongoing political debate over migrant workers. Daniela Laurel brings you the details on Firstpost America.
