"The Vedanta/Cairn acquisition required permission from the Indian government, which was secretly lobbied by David Cameron to approve the deal on behalf of Cairn. CEO of Cairn, Sir Bill Gammell, is a powerful Scottish energy industry magnate, and close childhood friend of Tony Blair and George W. Bush.
