WHEN is the weather going to go away!

The south is taking the brunt of the flooding, etc. It has taken the Government time to get things moving, pumping water from the flooded wasteland and the houses cleared of the water.

When these things happen overseas, they class it as a disaster zone and ask for help, which they receive. The Government gives aid to the flooded areas in Asia for example, with no messing about.

Why then do our people have to wait for two weeks, like the people in Somerset have had to?
