Water giant United Utilities strikes £1.8bn pension deal
Monday, 10 July 2023 The FTSE-100 water group United Utilities (UU) has struck a £1.8bn deal to offload a chunk of its pension liabilities amid unprecedented scrutiny on the industry's financial resilience.
Actor Steve Coogan has accused water company United Utilities of "greenwashing" and "PR spin" as he criticised the company for putting sewage into Windermere.
The I’m Alan Partridge star joined a protest outside the company's North West offices near the lake as he called on the Government to compel them to clean up England’s largest lake rather than pay huge dividends to shareholders.
