From Drinking Water in Scotland 2025 Published27 August 2026 09:30

Water Quality Regulator says “Scotland’s drinking water remains amongst the best in the world, but improvement is required to reduce avoidable incidents’’

Scotland’s drinking water is world class, with more than 99.9% of tests meeting regulatory standards. But the Drinking Water Quality Regulator says a rise in avoidable incidents and complaints about discoloured water shows that further improvements are needed to maintain public confidence. https://www.gov.scot/news/drinking-water-in-scotland-2025/

Predictably BBC Scotland are ignoring this completely while STV have covered it.

Notably, the DWI in England claims 99.97% compliance. https://www.dwi.gov.uk/7-july-drinking-water-inspectorate-chief-inspectors-annual-report-2025-england/

It makes you wonder about their testing procedures when you see this in June 2026

"South West Water is due to be sentenced today after admitting supplying water unfit for human consumption"

A YouGov poll last month showed that 82% want water in public ownership, but the govt won't do it because they're on the side of the profiteers, not us. pic.twitter.com/R1xCWv9NAH
