Some common sense at last!

09 February 2014

At last some common sense from an MP. I have just heard Richard Benyon speaking on Radio 4 about the prioritisation of resource allocation for flood risk management. Wonderful stuff - and most importantly supportive of the EA's staff.

How on earth anybody can put their back into a job when they are being kicked from all sides and blamed for a calamity that could not be predicted. I'm glad I no longer work in a Government Agency.

It was also greatly heartening to hear Richard Benyon prepared to criticise a fellow Tory MP too. Maybe there are a few MPs who might be encouraged to lead a call for some commonsense and a better understanding of the fact that this is possibly the worst rainfall event in recorded history (i.e. about 250 years!).
