"Asians" is a common term in the UK denoting individuals from south Asia. It is not conscious at all. Nothing to do with fear of offending Muslims. Its just a catch-all expression in the UK. No more, no less.

BS, perhaps you should go to here and read what they had to say. They are deliberately using the term asians to get around the M word. Period.
