Bosses on Blair trip slam China textile ban – David Smith

Posted by | Sep 3, 2005

From The Sunday Times:

Business leaders who will travel with Tony Blair today to China and India are demanding that the European Union immediately lift its blockade on Chinese textile imports.

The 40 company bosses are also attempting to spearhead a drive to increase Britain’s exports to China and India. Currently only 1% of UK exports go to each market.
