@patrickmcgee.bsky.social Book #AppleInChina is phenomenal. It’s a must-read. It is one of the rare books where I bought the ebook, audiobook, & after finishing it, the hardcover. I’ve gone digital, but this book is so good it’s getting space on the physical bookshelves in my home. Bravo, Patrick!

Yeah. The UK, even after Brexit, does three times more trade with the EU than the US.
