Although they accept that demand is rising with increasing population, one of the main reasons they give is, you guessed it, climate change!
Their report not only claims that summers will be drier, but that these impacts are already being felt. This claim is, however, bogus. Summers are no drier nowadays than they have been since 1840. Neither, for that matter, are they any wetter. We merely see the year-to-year variability we have always seen.
Moreover, across the year as a whole rainfall levels have been trending higher in the last 30 years. Water tables and reservoirs should, in theory, be fuller as a result, not lower.
How do they think they can get away with such bare-faced lies?

that mass immigration is playing in water shortages, even though they
now assume population in England will rise by 8million in the next 30
