I'm assuming you conveniently forgot that the UK already has a law requiring users to hand over credentials / keys. This additional 'request' is a sweeping power too far and Apple have justly refused. You have also just embarrassed the UK by 'demanding'. Poor form!
@LukeGaughan @tomhfh well for one the people who love encryption most are pedophiles. Even the US has a law ( dating way back) that forces platforms to proactively hand over some data.
