Increasingly looking like a face saving operation by the CMa and the CAT does not appear to be pleased.

The CMA made their mind up from day one and just came up with any shitty reason to block the deal, then started having 2nd thoughts when the FTC got clapped in court (and the EC didn't have their back) and now want to change their mind but use a cover instead of admitting to them making a mistake, it's a "new" merger evaluation they say, but it really isn't, they could have had these proposals in the 1st one, Lol.

I remember Brad Smith statement on the difference between the CMA and the EU.  He specifically stated how the EU voiced their concerns and worked with MS to address them while the CMA pretty much closed up shop then out of the blue threw out their judgement basically giving the impression the the CMA never was interested in approving the deal.
