- b800h 3y agoYes, I think they described it as 'peanuts'. It's in the form of investment as well, but if they don't want it and we can't afford it, it's odd that it carries on. I'm sure it's a complex matter.
- pjc50 3y agoI mean, we certainly can afford it, far more so than e.g. PPE Medpro, but it's worth questioning what it's actually for. Which will require more granularity than "India", since it's not going to the Indian government.
