Up to a million Zimbabweans are estimated to be living in Britain, many having fled after President Robert Mugabe introduced controversial land reforms in 2000 and sent their nation's economy into a dizzying freefall. The exile community has mobilised for the presidential and general election at home, even if many know that, as political refugees, they cannot return anytime soon.
