You know they have been to space and are on their way to challenge china?

So long as we prevent them bleeding us dry to fund their success as we should do with all of our partners then why wouldn't we want to trade with them, last time they helped build the British Empire.

“To make a powerful economic ally of the developing nation, Boris Johnson must succeed where his predecessors have failed ( )

Britain’s latest foray to India follows a decade of false starts.

David Cameron made a two-day trip shortly after coming to power in 2010, saying he hoped to lay down the foundations for an “enhanced relationship” between the countries.

He returned with gusto in 2013, bringing with him more than 100 representatives including business leaders, university chiefs and ministers – the largest trade delegation ever taken by a British PM.

But a fundamental question was going unanswered. Was the UK prepared to offer India what the rapidly developing country wanted: access to visas so its students and workers could come to Britain?

The answer was an emphatic no. That fundamental disconnect stymied any real progress that could be made. Despite Cameron’s optimism, trade with India dwindled.”
