Tap water is perfectly safe to drink everywhere in the UK (except when there's some temporary incident that gets fixed) regardless of who the consumers are, there are very strict regulations to follow regardless.

Surely it's the same in any developed country, clean, safe water is a very important basic right that the populace would quickly riot over if it weren't available. It's water, after all.

Absolutely - but in the UK they don’t have neighbourhoods designed and built along ethnic lines. US city planning seems to be based around cars and segregation. It’s so hard to understand unless you’ve actually seen it in action. It’s worth remembering that the US invented apartheid, to all intents and purposes.
