South East Water has blamed those who work from home for the first hosepipe ban of the summer that will be imposed on Monday.

Jutta Wrobel, 61, an artist in the village of Wadhurst, East Sussex, said: ‘It’s not a suitable response, neither is the paddling pool story or the idea they didn’t see summer coming – they’re all trivial sideshows.

Greg Clark, the Conservative MP for Tunbridge Wells, told The Times: ‘Their only job is to deliver drinking water. But in my constituency, they have run out of water twice in six months – once just before Christmas when we had a cold snap, and now after a small and unexceptional heatwave. ‘Customers will be asking why, for the second time in six months, their water company is being caught out by the weather.’
