Mark Zuckerberg once ‘threatened to pull’ UK investment in a private meeting with a minister

Mark Zuckerberg threatened to pull investment in the U.K. in a private meeting two years ago.

Facebook co-founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg arrives for testimony before the House Financial Services Committee in the Rayburn House Office Building on Capitol Hill October 23, 2019 in Washington, DC.— Facebook Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg threatened to pull investment in the U.K. in a private meeting two years ago with Matt Hancock, who was then the U.K. government's secretary for digital, culture, media and sport.

The minutes describe how Zuckerberg said the U.K. is the "obvious territory" for Facebook to invest in Europe, but he claimed the company was looking elsewhere due to the criticism the company had been receiving in Britain. The meeting between the world's fifth-richest person and Hancock took place as Facebook was in the spotlight over the Cambridge Analytica scandal that saw data of millions of Facebook users harvested for political campaigns.
