Is this what Cameron meant when he said "we are all in this together"?
What I would like to know however is, will the water bills go down for those who get their water from one of the water companies who sell their water to the less fortunate areas?
Also if those companies who have enough water to enable them to sell some, will it not then make these 'plenty of water' companies also short enough, so that they in turn have to impose restrictions on their customers by also introducing hosepipe bans?

No. In theory they know how much surplus capacity they've got and only sell this.

Will water bills go down? No, but profits amd therefore share dividends will go up, which is the entire point of running a private company. Of course, it used to be a utility, supplying everyone with a basic requirement of a civilised country, but now it's a company and always looking to make a profit, even by selling a natural resource.
That's Conservatism for you.

One of the consequences of the giveaway of our national utility companies was their fragmentation into many greedy competing companies, mostly French and German owned. They have shareholders to pay and therefore maximise profits at every opportunity.
In a non integrated network, supply comes from whoever has the resource. This is no different than us buying electricity generated in France or gas from Russia.

Surely oil is a natural resource too, but no-one objects to selling that. The forced eviction of the people of Capel Celyn in the late 50s to create a reservoir to supply the city of Liverpool did more than anything else to advance the cause of Welsh nationalism.
