Indo-UK News & Discussions- June 2017
Re: Indo-UK News & Discussions- June 2017
Kaivalya, don’t need long essays from you about how dangerous buddhism is to the world and thereby deflecting attention from the key issue we are discussing here, UK’s troubling imprisonment of large numbers of Buddhists. FYi, they are a model, non-violent minority in UK, yet they seem to get pulled over and put in jails.
Why are they disproportionately being jailed in UK because of their beliefs? So enough of Buddhophobia here in this particular thread (about UK).

Hnairji ,
Please read my earlier response. My point was people classified as Buddhists might have nothing to do with buddhism as they come from a variety of cultures and countries

Re: Indo-UK News & Discussions- June 2017
Please take your point on Buddhism to the appropriate thread. This thread is about UK and it is of concern that UK is incarcerating a religious minority more than others. Particularly one so peaceful and widely respected as Buddhism.

I have a diff view of the rise of Sunak. With the US in slow retreat from the world, alliance partners like the UK needs to look elsewhere to help secure their own interests. I think the corporates along with the political leadership learned quite a bit from the US-China relationship and would like to enter a similar relationship with India. India has a huge labor skilled and unskilled labor advantage and is politically stable. It also has an overall peaceful rise strategy and has positioned itself as the most powerful swing state in human history.Prem Kumar wrote:Possible fall-guy as well if the Tories lose the next general elections to Labour. Perhaps why BoJo sat this one out, among other reasonsNeela wrote:Is it only me who thinks Rishi is there to get over the economic hump. And is likely to be flushed off once stability returns?
I think Liz messed up with this FTA and this was a big thing. There is huge potential with big corporate houses in UK transferring technology including defence and catering to huge consumer market in India, UK, and rest of world. It's a win-win relationship.
This is where Sunak comes in. Indians are very good at fixing problems. I think politics is a new area like IT which has a lot of potential. From what I see, Sunak is treating this political problem like a private equity. He has a lot of cash and huge resources from his family. He's going to attempt to strengthen the conservative position, stabilize the economy, and get the FTA online.
This is a boon for Indian gov including intelligence community. I am sure he can be influenced to a degree. His father and his company after all are subject to Indian law.

British PM Rishi Sunak committed to FTA with India, says Downing Street https://indianexpress.com/article/world ... t-8246331/
Intensive negotiations continue towards a free trade agreement (FTA) between India and the UK and new British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak is committed to achieving a balanced deal, Downing Street said on Wednesday.
Sunak, who took charge at 10 Downing Street last week, had a “very warm” introductory call with Prime Minister Narendra Modi during which both sides expressed their commitment towards an FTA.
The UK Prime Minister’s office also reiterated that the focus remains on a balanced trade deal that benefits both sides and therefore no timeframe is being specified after a proposed Diwali timeline had to be abandoned last month amid political turmoil in the UK.
The two leaders are expected to meet in person at the G20 Summit in Indonesia later this month, unless they meet at the COP27 Summit in Egypt where the UK Prime Minister has confirmed attendance of the Leader’s Day but Modi’s visit is as yet unconfirmed.

Boris Johnson ‘quit PM race over risk to £10m earnings’, sources say
https://www.theguardian.com/politics/20 ... ources-say
https://www.theguardian.com/politics/20 ... ources-say
Boris Johnson would have forfeited earnings of at least £10m a year from speeches and sales of his memoirs if he had fought a leadership battle against Rishi Sunak and lost, according to informed sources in the entertainment industry, who believe financial considerations played a part in his decision to pull out.
Since he resigned in July, Johnson is known to have been in talks with entertainment and talent agencies including Endeavour, run by US businessman Ari Emanuel, and the Harry Walker Agency (HWA), one of its subsidiaries.
HWA’s clients include Bill Clinton, Barack Obama and Serena Williams.
Johnson’s earning potential is said by some of those he had been in talks with before Liz Truss’s resignation to have been put at about £20m a year.
Most Tories, including Johnson supporters, believe the main reason behind his withdrawal from the contest to replace Truss a fortnight ago was that he was being told he risked destroying the Tory party, and his reputation with it. However, some of his allies were surprised and felt let down by his decision.
“There were a lot of people upset with Boris,” one senior Tory figure said. “They’d backed him publicly only to see him pull out at the last minute. They didn’t understand why.”
Their confusion deepened on Friday when Sir Graham Brady, chair of the 1922 Committee of Conservative backbenchers, made it clear that Johnson had definitely received enough nominations (the backing of at least 100 MPs) to proceed to a final “indicative” vote of MPs and then a ballot of the 170,000 or so party members who’d have the final say. At the time some doubted he had got close to 100.
The Observer has been told that people associated with Emanuel made it clear to Johnson that had he lost against Sunak, his appeal to global audiences, and therefore a good deal of his earning power, would disappear. It is understood that the talent industry believed his value would have dropped by at least half.

husband is alive, proper member of the ltte, and he is/was an illegal SL refugee who entered India clandestinely and so legally forfeits all claim to refugee status in India but since wokes are part of the Indian ecosystem and anything goes
visa was given because the host is an active part of the BIF that funded, armed and even today aids the dravidian terrorists who once operated out of SL but today are operating out of dravidian claimed lands.
can a convict even hold an Indian passport or will the wokes allow that too to happen

Re: Indo-UK News & Discussions- June 2017
Because, their cases were identical to Perarivalan's release. All their roles were peripheral, at best, to the actual conspiracy which was planned and executed by Sivarasan who committed suicide once he realized that the Police had surrounded him. The Supreme Court had earlier released Perarivalan using a rarely used Article in the Indian Constitution which empowers the SC to render 'justice' when laws as framed, allow no scope for doing so. Since other six people's cases were no different from that of Perarivalan (in terms of their participation and knowledge of the conspiracy) their right to be released became no less than that of Perarivalan.Cyrano wrote:What was the legal basis stated by the SC to set these killers free?
