BOLTON, ENGLAND, May 14, 2011 (Press-News.org) Online parcel delivery specialist Parcel2Go has given its backing to a new government plan announced this week to help businesses break into new international markets. UK Trade and Investment (UKTI) has joined with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office to draw up a five-year Charter for Business.

The aim is for UKTI to become "more entrepreneurial" and find new ways to help British businesses to enter foreign markets and increase the volume of goods being exported from the UK. Richard Mercer, Marketing Director at Parcel2Go, welcomed the move which he believes has the potential to make a big difference to the number of UK companies that take the plunge and attempt to break into foreign markets.

Bolton-based Parcel2Go has been helping individuals and companies to export products for years, by providing easy access to reliable courier services that deal with international delivery shipments on a daily basis.

Richard said: "Small businesses that send their products to countries all over the world are set to continue to play a key role in helping to get the British economy back on track.

"The team at Parcel2Go deal with a wide variety of businesses, some that have been exporting goods to foreign countries for years and others that are just taking their first tentative steps. Knowing there is help available is hugely reassuring for firms, and that advice can potentially mean the difference between success and failure."

The government has said that following the release of its Charter for Business it will start to look in more detail at how it works with businesses, especially small and medium-sized companies, and then decide on what action will be most effective.

About Parcel2Go:
Parcel2Go Ltd has been offering its customers a comprehensive range of parcel delivery, eBay courier and worldwide shipping services for the past 21 years. Based in Bolton, the company operates a cost effective collection and delivery service available throughout the UK, Europe and USA mainland.

California Voters Likely to Decriminalize Drug-Possession Crimes in 2012 Election. Is Nevada Following Suit?

2011-05-14

For years, the United States has battled the infamous "war on drugs." First coined by President Richard M. Nixon in 1970, the "war" was designed to crack down on drug offenses and the drug trade by increasing budget resources to clean-up crime and by implementing hard jail sentences for non-violent drug offenders. As a result, subsequent laws were passed heightening the penalties for drug-related offenses. The number of nationwide drug arrests therefore rose a whopping 126 percent by the 1980s, raising the number of incarcerated drug offenders twelvefold. ...
