According to The Sun: The head of the water supply company, David Hinton, earning an annual salary of £400,000, partly blamed those working from home for the chaos that left 24,000 households without water.
According to him, 'lifestyle changes' and commuters staying put were the reasons for the problems in Tunbridge Wells, Kent. Thousands of families found themselves unable to access drinking water.
