Rejected petition BOOST OVERSEAS TRADE FOR BRITAIN
More details
BOOST OVERSEAS TRADE FOR BRITAIN
The British government should do more for our manufacturing industries to export more goods, with trade exhibitions fully funded by the taxpayers purse for the cost of transporting demonstration equipment and other goods they make, plus the cost of travel, hotels, entertainment expenses without the companies involved having to stick their hands in their pockets.
Our impoverished small manufacturing businesses cannot afford overseas trade exhibitions and must be funded by the government to get Britain in full employment again.
The government pays out billions of pounds in 'foreign aid', often to undesirable dictators and nuclear armed nations like India, and Pakistan, yet spends nothing on boosting British manufacturing to boost employment and greater prosperity for all British people who would be able to afford to 'shop 'til they drop' once again – boosting trade for all other sectors of business.
