British Court Says Up Yours To US
Tony doesn't seem to be of much help these days:

-snip-

"UK court seals P&O deal


The British Court of Appeal has denied permission to a US company to challenge an earlier court ruling authorising the takeover of British port operator P&O by Dubai Ports World.


Monday's unanimous decision by the three-judge panel targeted the Florida-based Eller Company.

P&O acknowledged the appeal ruling and said its sale to DP World would now proceed."

2. This Is Exactly What King george Wanted...
I'd say Tony was a great help. King george wants this deal to go through, so this is precisely the outcome he was looking for.
