there's loads of 'offices' in London
for people who are so keen on their country that they never seem to ever want to set foot in it (dole, health benefits...don't get me started!!!

)
seems to me that the agro going on in their country is a cash cow for them
Dalai Lama for instance - if they said to him - look - here's tibet - we're sick of it - have it back - he'd go back there and be a nobody
