Unilever bows to pressure in CND symbol row
CORPORATE giant Unilever has caved in to pressure from peace campaigners to cough up a donation to the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND) for use of its iconic symbol.
CND declared victory in its compensation battle on Monday evening — two days after the Star revealed the campaign was considering legal action.
Unilever has used the CND logo to brand its new Lynx Peace range of deodorant, shampoo and body wash, claiming it was a “universal symbol of peace.”
