Britain's competition regulator cleared a $44 billion merger between broadband company Virgin Media and Telefonica's (TEF.MC) UK mobile network O2 on Thursday, after a months-long review.

"This is a watershed moment in the history of telecommunications in the UK as we are now cleared to bring real choice where it hasn't existed before, while investing in fibre and 5G that the UK needs to thrive," Liberty Global CEO Mike Fries and his Telefonica counterpart José Maria Alvarez-Pallete said in a joint statement following the CMA approval.
