John Hodgson's tirade about water meters left me speechless (The Argus, August 5).
Would he expect to have unlimited supplies of gas or electricity? I doubt it.
You pay for those utilities which you used and so it should be for water as well.
There are plenty of people who, before the hosepipe ban, would leave sprinklers on their lawns, fill their children's paddling pools, leave taps running and use their dishwasher unnecessarily.
Why should they not pay for this overuse of a now scarce commodity?
