Southern Water impose a hosepipe ban stopping people washing their cars filling paddling pools or watering their gardens. Yet lose estimated 21 million gallons of water per day due to leaky pipes This is not the 1st time that there has been a shortage of water but nothing is ever done about it. The population has grown by approx 6 million people(in the last 10yrs) so extra housing but no extra reservoirs to hold any water. Has a island we are surrounded by water how long before desalination plants have to be set up to get drinking water
