Throughout the week, we’ve been sharing with our people how we’re contributing to the circular economy and why it’s so important.

The Vodafone/Three merger is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to transform UK digital infrastructure with £11bn of investment. Vodafone and Three UK disagree with the CMA’s Provisional Findings that their merger raises competition concerns and could lead to price rises for customers. By all measures, the merger is pro-growth, pro-customer and pro-competition. It can, and should, be approved by the CMA. This is not a final decision, and we look forward to working with the CMA to secure approval. Our CEO, Robert Finnegan, said: "The current UK 4 player mobile market is dysfunctional and lacks quality competition with 2 strong players and 2 weak players. This is reflected in the current state of the UK’s digital infrastructure that everyone agrees falls well short of what the country needs and deserves. We are determined to reassure the CMA in relation to their provisional concerns and work with them to secure the extensive benefits this merger brings for UK customers, businesses and wider society.”
