Perhaps the authorities should put their heads together.

To save water, we buy pre-washed, packaged food, creating rubbish they do not want.

If it comes to a standpipe situation, many will, no doubt, use throw-away plates, cups etc and also use bottled drinks, creating more rubbish the authorities do not want.

Please give us true guidance instead of just telling us what not to do.

Why are we allowing flood water to escape from the Adur?
