GMB Union has described Southern Water's hosepipe ban as 'shameless' after the company leaked more than 100 million litres of water a day on average last year.
Gary Carter, GMB National Officer, said:
“Southern Water loses more than 100 million litres of water through leaks every single day.
“GMB members at Southern work their socks off, but they’re hamstrung by crumbling infrastructure and non-existent investment.
“For Southern to now impose a hosepipe, while bills rocket, is shameless.”
