00:00Well, this is a historic day for the United Kingdom and for India

00:04because this is the biggest trade deal that we, the UK, have done since we left the EU

00:10and it's the most ambitious trade deal that India has ever done

00:15and this will be measured in billions of pounds into our economy

00:20and jobs across the whole of the United Kingdom.

00:23So it is a really important, significant day

00:26and look, it's been promised many times over the last eight years.

00:31Prime Minister Modi and I decided in Brazil last year

00:35that we would move at pace in relation to these negotiations.

00:39We've done that in a serious way, in a pragmatic way

00:44and we're able to show that that's what delivers results.

00:48So I'm really pleased for working people across the country

00:51who will feel the benefits of this, of course,

00:54at an increasingly uncertain time in terms of trade and the economy across the world.

00:59So this is a very significant step

01:01and I'm very pleased that we've got this far with this really significant trade agreement.

01:06Is there a way to import it?

01:07Well, we have negotiated the best set of arrangements

01:10but I've been absolutely mindful of the key sectors that we have in this country

01:17and how we improve the economic circumstances for them.

01:21We have brilliance across the United Kingdom which will now be showcased

01:24and drive our economy in what we can now do with India.

01:28So we've negotiated hard on both sides

01:31but I think looking at the outcome here,

01:35what you will see is that these are two countries

01:38that have come together historically today

01:40and what we've been able to show is that, you know,

01:43those British values of seriousness, pragmatic approaches

01:46have delivered the results for working people across the country.

01:50Well, we had a cabinet meeting on this discussion, on this issue this morning.

01:56I was really clear that most prime ministers

01:58after a disappointing set of results like that

02:01would get in the warm bath of saying,

02:04well, it's the electoral cycle, it was close.

02:07I'm not going to do that.

02:09I think it's really important that we indicate to voters that we get it.

02:13I think we need to explain the decisions that we've taken.

02:17You know, we had to stop the chaos.

02:19We had to stabilise our economy and that's what we've done.

02:22What we now need to do, I think the message is

02:25the change people voted for, the change we're delivering is important.

02:31We've got to turbocharge that now off the back of the decisions we've made

02:34but turbocharge the change so that people can feel it in their everyday lives

02:38and that's what we're determined to do.

02:40Thank you very much.

02:41Thank you, Carl.

02:41Thank you.

02:42Nice to see you.

02:43All the best.
