Sky seem desperate to turn rain and flooding into an issue that has been caused from politics. Every 10 minutes they have some pissed of local bumping their gums about how the tories are to blame for the flooding.

I thought it was Labour who allowed building on flood plains?

The problem with the Levels is the Environment Agency spending £30m on a bird sanctuary rather than £10m keeping the drains working. The Levels are below sea level, they won't drain themselves.

And who put the EA in charge?
