| Ryuu96 said: CMA CEO Sarah Cardell Wrote a Letter to the Editor. The Times View on Competition: Closed for Business OPEN FOR BUSINESS Sir, Further to your leading article ("Closed for Business", Jun 5), prohibiting anti-competitive mergers helps to protect people and businesses from higher prices, worse choices and less innovation. But it is a tool we rarely use. Thousands of mergers and acquisitions affect the UK each year, yet fewer than 1 per cent are prohibited. Nearly all go ahead, including Microsoft's recent $20 billion purchase of the software company Nuance, which we cleared within a few months. Our view remains that maintaining a free competitive market is better than accepting Microsoft's plan for continuing regulation. Sarah Cardell _ Safe to say that CMA's not changing their minds and today's meeting didn't mean shit, Lol.
Smith met with Hunt but it wasn't together with CMA, Hunt is meeting CMA separately, so this meeting likely didn't mean a thing to begin with. |
Is Smith planning on meeting with Janet Yellen as well, or are they just going to assume any Trump appointed judges is going to side with Microsoft over the ftc?
