Politically, this is magnificent. The Lib Dems have target seats throughout Surrey where they're typically the main challenger, they've been campaigning hard locally on water quality through most of this parliament (hasn't always got national attention but they worked out a while ago it's a very resonant issue in their target seats) and then just in time for the election Thames Water start warning people the water isn't drinkable...
That's one conviction for every Big Mac he's eaten this week.

Oh, this is only the beginning of this shit show.

Trump and the rest of the republicans have already been spinning this around to their supporters as a demonstration of how “corrupt liberals have degraded our country and are weaponizing the court system” and “eLeCtIoN iNtErFeRAnCe.”

And the irony will be totally lost on them.
