So, the Govt. has forced out the head of the Competition & Markets Authority for under-performance;
but, that's not under-performance in tackling the major oligopoly problem across so many of the UK's market sectors; no its for being insufficiently attentive to growth, and not being attentive enough to business need.
FFS, its UK's competition regulator, its not supposed to be attentive to business interests!
So, more M&A fees for Rachels friends, then & more oligopolies!
