WW1 Family Inscriptions retweeted
I love India. I used to live in India. I want to trade with India.
But what should have been a massive 'win' has been marred by the fact that NI exemption for Indian workers, when British employees see the same tax hiked, means it will be far cheaper to hire foreign staff than provide jobs to our own
And that is just plain wrong. In fact, it's a disgrace.
