Seems like a good idea.
How much per litre do you think we should charge those in the South East?
They can pay for all the infrastructure too.
We need to redistribute the wealth in this country somehow.

That's fine. Obviously to compensate the govt can spend all the tax raised in the south east on the south east. I'm sure you'll support this idea too.0

You haven't seen the regional aqua duty yet, or the non economiser escalator attached."If you act like an illiterate man, your learning will never stop... Being uneducated, you have no fear of the future.".....

Here's the plan:
1. Dispatch every remaining British warship (not in active service) up to the Arctic to hitch up to giant icebergs.
2. Slowly steam all the way south with them, and anchor them just off the North coast of Scotland, and around the Anglesey area of Wales.
3. Build massive pipelines from Scotland and Wales, to pump much needed water to the South East. All the water they have available.
4. Er... and now the master stroke...
5. Sell the icebergs to Scotland and Wales. They'll need them because all their natural water will be filling the swimming pools and watering the green lawns of England!

About the same price as London beer, I'd think.
