Pressure is mounting on the chief executive David Hinton to step down as politicians describe the embattled company's response to the ongoing outages as totally shambolic. South East Water blamed the latest in a string of supply failures on burst pipes and power cuts caused by Storm Goretti, and said it is working around the clock to fix the leaks and bursts across the counties."

South East Water staff handing out bottled water in Maidstone (PA) Conservative MP for Maidstone and Malling, Helen Grant, said her constituents had been repeatedly left without water due to failures at South East Water. The MP was one of six MPs who wrote a letter calling for Mr Hinton's removal and said she has no confidence in him. It's been terrible and we've had this before, she told The Independent. We feel the lessons are not being learnt"
