I hate to agree with the Telegraph, even if I am sure they're attempting to blame it solely on water companies and nothing to do with a changing climate. They're all fuckers. Even the renationalised ones.

I live down the road from a water treatment place/the main offices for our area's water. For 5 years+ right at the top of the private road down to this place there was a water leak that had got so bad grooves were in the main road and theirs. The repair vans had to drive over "pothole corner" to go anywhere.
