Twitter opening a base in the UK would make 'perfect sense'

That is according to Justin Cooke, chair of the British Interactive Media Association, who said that having a base in the UK would make "just right sense" for Twitter and would help them "establish a stronghold into Europe and beyond".

Previous this week the Daily Telegraph reported that Prime Minister David Cameron and Mayor of London Boris Johnson released a personal plea to Twitter to create a new European HQ in the UK.

The move could see a number of businesses working closely with Twitter, helping them to develop their online marketing campaigns.

Mr Cooke added that a move to the UK by the micro blogging site could also help make a more technology-educated nation.
