“Continuing on his lengthy European tour today, Apple CEO Tim Cook has now stopped in London and had a chat with UK Prime Minister Theresa May,” Mitchel Broussard reports for MacRumors.
“According to a spokesperson for May speaking with Business Insider, the meeting focused on Apple’s continued investment in the United Kingdom amid the recent turmoil surrounding Brexit,” Broussard reports. “Overall, the meeting was said to have been ‘a very positive and useful discussion.'”
It was a meeting with the prime minister. It was a very positive and useful discussion. Apple have made a recent announcement about their investment in the UK and they had a conversation around that and the importance of government and business on digital skills which going forward will clearly be a huge part of the future industry. It was a chance for the prime minister to outline her plans for negotiating our EU exit. It was also a chance for her to reiterate and welcome Apple’s investment in the UK. — Spokesperson for UK Prime Minister Theresa May

MacDailyNews Take: Cook is wisely keeping in touch with the new British PM as Brexit unfolds.
Can the UK be the new Ireland for Apple?
Did Pipeline Timmy ask Ms. May when the trigger will be pulled on Article 50 and the will of the British people is at last realized?
probably not.
The will of barely half the British people. If they had used an electoral college, Brexit might not exist. Funny thing about the popular vote.
Well, Mr. Stupid, that’s because the UK is not a constitutional republic, it is a constitutional monarchy…it does not elect a “president” from an electoral college.
If I were king of the forest (not prince, not duke, not earl) I would make everyone of you stupid, jackass libtards take American Civics 101.
Tell it like it is Bot!
May wasn’t elected at all. She is a mandate-less politician pursuing a mandate-less version of Brexit that only a few hardcore UKIPpers wanted to see. It’s all just lies, pretence, and foundationless hoping for the best.
And if it’s not “the best” there’s no plan B. UK is fucked. The country won’t exist in a decade.
The danger inherent with parliament selecting a prime minister instead of an electoral college system, you think?
Parliament didn’t select her, the Tory Party did. The same Tory Party that will eventually fracture over Brexit and end up in just as big a mess as the Labour Party currently are.
You might be masturbating to the idea of a major European economy destroying itself for the sake of waving a flag. Personally I think they’re fuckwits who need a good kicking.
Well, I am with the Brexiters, I would never agree to be ruled by an unelected cartel of bankers in Brussels. It’s the masturbating fuckwits who give up their sovereignty.
Better an unelected cartel of bankers in Brussels than an unelected cabal of tax-avoiding newspaper proprietors. Rupert Murdoch is currently running the UK.
That’s one fucker who can’t die quick enough IMO.
well, that’s how I feel about George Soros.
Then with luck we’ll both be happy before long then eh?
Nowhere near half. 17 million out of 65 million voted out, and anyone who claims May’s vision of Brexit was what those 17 million voted for is lying.
A few years ago, Pete Sampras beat Joseph Schmoe in a professional tennis match 3 sets to 1.
Set 1: Sampras won 6 games to 5
Set 2: Schmoe won 6-0
Set 3: Sampras won 6 games to 5
Set 4: Sampras won 6 games to 5
After the fact, Schmoe fans ran around claiming that Joe Schmoe won because he won 21 games to Sampras’ 18.
For the Dem/Lib/Prog fools: Set 2 = California, where Sampras simply conserved energy and did not bother to compete because it was not necessary to win the match.
Largest vote in modern British history. You win some, you lose some. You gotta roll with the punches to get to what’s real – and that’s simply that leaving the EU won. End of.
