Re: Transfer

Umm, if this is correct (and it's not an area I have any knowledge on) and as much as I disagree with Brexit the UK negotiators are clearly deficient in _not_ using this leverage. The amount of pain the UK can cause to the entire EU in this modern data centric world by appropriate control of this connectivity is, quite simply, breathtaking. Granted the leverage would be only until an alternative route was found but I can't imagine that could happen in anything less than years maybe?
