This is not new and has been an intermittent issue since 2020. A few factors are a play but the biggest one was a significant fire in a US chemical plant in late 2020. The other main issue is China’s supply chain caused by Covid.

I've got loads at work. I used it the other day to clean the traps on all the blending valves. Maybe I can make a few quid on the side....

The shortage of Chlorine is due to two manufacturing plants in the U.S. having fires, one in 2020 and the second in January of this year. This had a huge impact on global supplies and also lead big price increase. The problems were further compounded by Covid related transport issues.

Tom why do you feel the need to offensive to get your point across? Calling French people frogs and buggers isn't OK.

There is probably a global shortage on the basis that certain dictators have been using chemical weapons on their people
