Leaded solder
 

I see neither Screwfix and Toolstation stock the real stuff, only lead free.

Has there been some recent legislation I've missed or is it still
allowed on non-potable water systems?

I expect there is not much demand for it, since for plumbing work the
lead free is easy enough to use and works well[1], and the call to make
wiped joints onto lead pipe is probably not great for many users!
