Well more Bob's are going to be needed for PS contracts as no self respecting contractor is going to do them for 220GBP a day. Can't wait to see the headlines when all the projects go down the pan

Has there ever been a successful PS IT delivery?

Not that I can think of, but then Bob's aren't really known for their speed of delivery and dynamism so all in all it'll probably take a lot longer

Cameron announces 'same day' visa service for Indian students and businessmen as he rolls out red carpet in Mumbai trade mission | Mail Online

The Prime Minister will open the UK's doors to Indian students and businessmen by dropping limits on immigration numbers and speeding up visas, he announced today.

David Cameron wants to make it easier for Indian businessmen and students to work, study and invest in the UK - in return for India making it easier for British companies to do business in the sub-continent.

Yeah, like the Indian govt will actaully keep their end of the "bargain".

So your solution would be to shut up shop, exclude the world and retreat into insularity?
Yes that would lead to prosperity, not!
In the bigger picture more trade will lead to more prosperity everywhere, so fewer people will want to come here.

Hutchings said of her 12-year-old, who has ambitions to become a surgeon,

"William is very gifted, which gives us another interesting challenge in finding the right sort of education for him – impossible in the state system...He wants to be a cardio-respiratory surgeon."

He's 12 years old FFS.

I have no problem with anyone coming over to the uk with 3 stipulations:

1) They should only be elligible for benefits after having lived and worked here for a given number of years.

2) No "smash and grab" - Money earnt in the UK should be primarily spent in the UK. I have worked with too many contractors who come over here for 2 years, earn a couple of hundred thousand in their LTD, draw it down and go back to India and retire in luxury on the money earnt here.

3) Easier to deport them if they violate the terms of their visa.

How do you plan on stopping people taking their money abroad?
