Despite people still washing their cars, sometimes with hosepipes, we hear that there is a serious water shortage.
But shouldn't the supply of a life-saving essential such as drinking water be a Government responsibility, with a nationwide network of pipes in place that is able to send water from one end of the country to the other if there's a shortage somewhere?
