🚨 Water crisis? Depends who you are. Southern England is in drought. Yet reports claim a US billionaire is trucking up to 13,000 gallons of water a day to his Wiltshire estate - despite a ban on tankers filling up from nearby mains. The estate sits within the Environment Agency's southern England drought area, where rivers are under growing pressure after one of the driest summers on record. Britain's water system has one rule for the public. Another for the powerful. Last week, River Action revealed that Britain still has more than 14,000 commercial abstraction licences, allowing businesses to take up to 43 TRILLION litres of water every year. Meanwhile, water companies continue to lose nearly two billion litres of treated drinking water every day through leaking pipes. It's time to stop asking the public to pay the price for a broken water system - and start fixing it. We need a Government with a credible National Water Resilience Plan: fix leaking infrastructure, restore rivers and wetlands, reform outdated abstraction licences, and manage water like the precious resource it is - not wait until the next drought to act. https://t.co/qw7Cc34IgZ
