Down side is though, you have to live in Scotland to benefit.Back in 94 when Thatcher privatised water in England and Wales public feeling was strongly against it in Scotland, so against a backdrop of a rise in Scottish Nationalism they caved in and let us retain ownership of Scottish water. So we have cheaper water bills and 35% more investment per household than English water authorities. Also cleaner beaches.
We make some strange decisions: free prescriptions, no tuition fees, free bus passes for the elderly, its as well we don't run England
Bermuda has always used rain water catchment, roofs are specially designed to slow it down. When I lived there in the '60s we had a big cistern below the house (with little fish to eat the bugs) to supply all our water needs.

Lol at this - the media whipping up another “crisis”. These cso outfalls have been with us since last century and before, nothing new, yet the lazy news people would rather conjure up another crisis, to add to their cost of living crisis, to nhs crisis, to boat people crisis, climate crisis, etc. They would be better doing some real news for once.
