We will see. When an org tries to set an image of independance, that can have a much stronger pull then some government official telling the CMA conform or be punished. You get a couple idealistic people in that seat and you can never predict how they will act. I would not but to much stock on the UK government as you never really know what is being played behind the scenes. Power play all across the board could be in play, different factions you name it. One thing you can count on is the unpredictable nature of government, especially when you do not know who all the players are. |
My friend, there is one simple line that never fails on these situations, and that is: "we might need to cut budget". And I would agree with you on the rest of your post if there was something that the UK government would gain from the CMA blocking this.
