The ongoing Tunbridge Wells water outage is completely unacceptable and must be resolved quickly. This morning, Minister Hardy met with @sewateruk and local councils to discuss progress. A full investigation is underway, and those affected need to be fully compensated.

The situation in Tunbridge Wells is unacceptable. I have met with South East Water’s CEO to stress the serious concerns of myself and the Prime Minister. No one should be left without water, and the company must provide full support to customers, including proper compensation.

I am frustrated and concerned about the ongoing water supply issues facing households in Tunbridge Wells. We are calling on South East Water to take immediate action to support customers, restore water supply to these households and reimburse those affected.

The Government has delivered on its pledge to crack down on puppy smuggling, by introducing The Animal Welfare (Import of Dogs, Cats and Ferrets) Act. This will stop suffering like that endured by Pip & Squeak, who were illegally brought into the country at 7 weeks old. (1/2)
