There was an interesting guy on the radio last night from the Indian government, who is responsible for trade deals and stuff. he said the usual stuff about emerging markets and technology and entering the world stage and said that obviously due to the history and the common language, the UK would continue to be a major partner of many Indian companies.
Then he went on to say, "Of course, one of the major reasons for the UK being such a popular trading partner is that it gives India an English-speaking gateway into a single market of 500 million potential customers. It will be a great shame for india to lose access via the UK into the European market."
After a slight pause, he said "But there has always been a very special bond between the peoples of India and Scotland..."
