CMA defending the indefendible with a perfectly straight face (two, actually)?

 Watch here. 
Among other exchanges, I loved MPs asking the CMA whether they knew what Meta was doing and what they were doing about it. “But Meta isn’t designated”, just after assuring everyone they had enough funding and were doing everything they needed to. Apparently, designating Meta wasn’t on the list. You do have to wonder.

The CMA is apparently thinking *very, very, very hard* about everything it's asked about (so we heard from the CEO, at least). Somewhere between all that thinking and actually doing anything, the whole thing seems to deflate, however.

 

Don't get too angry, relax...
