Could be a big ouchie

Won't be a big ouchie.

If the history of these monopoly investigations things is anything to go by, it'll:

1. Trundle on for years until whatever the outcome is its effectively pointless and worthless.

2. Be kicked into the long grass faster than you can say "public enquiry". Further investigation of said long grass will indicate the presence of that species often found in long grass - the lesser spotted payoff.

3. Be eventually 'resolved' in such a way as everyone involved, apart from oddly enough the EU, knows means absolutely nothing; business will go on as before, and it will all be paid for out of taxes.

3a. Addendum, and most of the mouth breathers won't care either way because they think it doesn't matter cos of Brexit.

And let's be honest, if it isn't Google who's selling our info to ad pedlars, it'll only be someone else. The NHS were only forced to can their attempt cos they were dumb enough to be honest about it.
