Indians are the 'new Jews' of Britain, which will one day day be ruled by an Indian prime minister, according to disgraced Tory peer Lord Archer.
Archer, who is touring India to promote his latest book, said Indian businessmen are 'taking over' Britain and that Indian mayors and councillors are taking over local government throughout the country.
His comments were made following a number of Indian takeovers of major British companies, such as Jaguar, Land Rover, Corus Steel and the Scottish whisky giant Whyte and Mackay.
In a television interview staged in a glitzy new shopping malls near Delhi, Archer said India's impact on Britain will be 'massive'.
'It is going to be taken over by Indians, and I don't joke,' he said.
'Now what you [Indians] are doing is what the Jews did 30-40 years ago when they came to England after the war.
'They took over the local councils and they became mayors. Now they are in Parliament.
'The Indians are now taking over the local councils. There are mayors all over England who are Indian.
'You are young enough to live to an Indian prime minister in England,' he said.
The number of Indians living in UK according to 2001 Census is 1,051,800.
The interview took place at a bookshop in a mall in Gurgaon, a new city outside Delhi, where Lord Archer was promoting his latest book 'A Prisoner of Birth'.
The novel is based on the time the former Conservative Party deputy chairman spent in Belmarsh Prison after being sentenced in 2001 to years in jail for perjury and intending to pervert the course of justice.
