Actually, I said:
‘Kemi Benedoch confirmed on Laura K’s show this morning that the Indian trade deal was making good progress.’
Where did I ‘(hail) it as something worthwhile’?
This misinterpretation of things said that Cable Forumers do when hearing facts that they don’t like seems to have infected you, too, Seph, which saddens me.

The £1.8 bn was actually stated, and I added to that the statement Kemi made about taking up the opportunities that the deal provided. The £1.8bn is a forecast based on existing activity and intentions. It’s been said all along that if you present the opportunities to businesses, they will find imaginative ways to exploit them.
I say that recognising that this is beyond comprehension for some. Live and learn.
