The conservatives party to relax visa rules for India
Students that can get a job after studying in the UK will be welcome to stay in the UK
And there will be open visa for business men
And after 5 years they can have residency, And probably bring in there extended families

Now I think most Indians are ok they like a drink and are easy to rub along with
The down side is there a bit racist when it comes to there girls and white British men
But I think the conservative party should realise that we have an unemployment problem in the UK people struggling to make a living
This coupled with the conservatives opening the doors to Romania and Bulgaria in 2014 ,I don't think this is the time to be inviting maybe millions of Indians to come to the uk .

not many well off indians would want to move here, they prefer the states or canada. there are great export opportunities for u.k. companies due to an ever increasing affluent middle class looking to buy quality western goods.

The pound is too strong, Brian. To get trade flowing with a country that has a much lower average wage, as India has, Britain needs to cease keeping an artificially over-valued currency.
Britain does not have the economic assets to justify such a super-pound.
By contrast, the euro is too weak. The result is, we are loosing out on trade, with a massive trade deficit.

But the point of reciprocal and fair trade, Brian, is that both countries - Britain and India - can trade on a level-headed basis.
A very strong currency - the pound - will not facilitate British exports to India.
As a result, many British firms are excluded from the Indian market.
Only firms such as arms producers and producers of high-tech items can export to India, till such time as the Indians have copied the technology. The same as China does.
So really, it is not at all fair trade, as most British firms are excluded from exporting to many countries owing to an artificially high currency.
This is an economic fact of principle.

May-be you're not, Brian. But the UK economy is being held back.
You wrote above: "to get trade flowing". Trade cannot flow properly as long as two commercial partners are on an unequal basis.

you are right on this one alex but the word is that the euro is ready for a fightback against the pound which will make us more competitive again.

In fact, Howard, the Eurozone has 17 members, so when trading with each other, they won't be negatively affected by a stronger euro, as they all use the same currency.
But it would make their fuel imports so much cheaper for them, as the Eurozone depends on fuel imports to a very large extent.
But our over-valued pound is strangling our economy.
We have (still) oil in the North Sea - OK not much left - and the Falklands, so we could easily weather that problem.
But our trade deficit would be rectified once we can export more to other countries based on fair trade.
This is currently denied us owing to the enormous wage discrepancy between the UK and many Asian, African and South & Central American countries. A proper pound value would reduce these wage differences, thus opening up markets to our economy on a reciprocal and fair level.

I hope while he's out there he'll be having a word with that company who call me at least twice a day about my windows - they don't seem to understand when I tell them that I had double glazing put in a long time ago.

Exactly what I was on about Howard - some days I try to get them to slam the phone down on me asap, about 5 sec is the record, other days I try to wind them up as long as possible to stop them calling someone else - it's always a triumph then when I get passed on to a supervisor and can give them a completely different story

The Indians do more business with Belgium than the uk
Cameron's sticking his lizard tong down there pants,
Giving away visas like confetti, and splashing our borrowed money trying to sell them arms that they don't want.
And what do they do publicly crap all over him,
They should drag him back on the plain before he gives away the crown Jules
