I asked trade minister Ranil Jayawardena MP about a possible future deal with countries from the Gulf region. UK exports to GCC states last year were worth £30 billion but for any future deal to be successful, we need to ensure Emirati business leaders can have a simple visa process so they can come to the UK to establish links with UK firms. Trade means jobs, and measures like these can help make the UK the best place to trade and invest - creating yet more opportunities for Bucks businesses
