Default OT Chlorine in Derbys H2O

I wonder whether our retroactive government(s) have in place, security
precautions for our water supplies. An obvious thought esp. in the

A couple of stolen billets of Plutonium should sort it out, you then cannot
use it for a thousand years..:-)

Plutonium is a poor choice, its not going to do much and can be filtered
