I live in the UK, and because of Brexit we won't get this. Thanks Nigel Farage.

I expect that it's because we're not in the EU that measures like this can be passed there. Maybe in 10-20 years time we can rejoin an EU massively improved by our absence.

Not true. There has been big moment against the MS monoply by the EU, pre-Brexit. Truth is, the UK hasn't been powerful enough to stop these large antitrust cases for a long time. Brexit or not.
