LBC callers are divided over the UK-India trade deal
Keir Starmer has come under fire for the new India trade deal that will see some workers exempt from paying national insurance in the UK for three years.
The deal, announced on Tuesday afternoon, will mean dramatic tariff reductions on scotch whisky and car exports to India, while levies on aerospace, electricals and other food products will also fall.
LBC callers weighed in to share their assessment of the deal.
0:00 – John thinks Indian nationals will take advantage of the UK’s free healthcare system.
1:42 – Daniel highlights how this would help business owners, but risks benefitting only big companies.
2:47 – Michael doesn’t understand why the deal isn’t being ‘celebrated’.
4:20 – Jo is concerned about the added stress this will bring to the NHS.
6:07 – Paul explains how he thinks this will help with labour shortages.
