    Explanation
    During the 1950s, the UK invited people from India and the West Indies to come and work. This was a result of labor shortages in the UK after World War II, and the UK government actively encouraged immigration from these regions to fill the gaps in the workforce. The people from India and the West Indies were invited to work in various industries such as healthcare, transportation, and manufacturing, contributing significantly to the UK's post-war economic recovery.
