To be fair, it's not just Indians Dave wants here, it's Pakistanis too. But he has to get the go-ahead from Europe first. -
David (along with Theresa) was originally opposed to the EU FTA with India.

You know what government response will be: "They must lower their sights and accept lesser jobs such as data entry"
It looks like Dave & Co's plan to hold out for the same bribes that were paid to nuLieBore has paid off and the money is coming through now.How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.
