Is Boris sending out the wrong message to the UK's citizens be arranging a trip to the Indian subcontinent at this time.

India currently has a rampant rate of infection and, in a country with a vast rural population, I strongly suspect that the actual level of Covid-19 is significantly higher than what is officially being reported.

I appreciate that Indian and British companies already do a lot of business, but would videoconferencing not have been a more appropriate means of communication, at least until such time as herd immunity is achieved by mass vaccination in both countries.

Haven't you heard.. rules don't apply to politicians. Also, giving out the wrong message is Boris's speciality

He needs them to ramp up the AZ vaccine production as well as trade deals. He doesn't want to rock the boat I suspect. I am not justifying it just trying to understand why especially with the mutant strain doing the rounds in India

read this thread, but he has wisely taken the decision to cancel his trip to India!
