Rejected petition Force Peter Perry(Welsh water CEO) to resign
Peter Perry, CEO of Welsh Water, must resign. The company admitted to illegally discharging raw sewage into protected areas like Cardigan Bay between 2018-2023, harming ecosystems. It misreported leakage data for years, leading to a £40m fine. Despite these failures, Perry earned over £600,000 in 2022, including a £232,000 bonus, while customers faced rising bills—now among the highest in the UK. Welsh Water needs accountable leadership to protect the environment and rebuild public trust.
