The UK: Month’s Rain in 24 Hours Causes Widespread Flooding and Chaos | Firstpost America

[@redbeard3923]

Can't spend in Britain but can send billons to Ukraine and taking money off pensioners

[@joannelockwood9716]

In North Yorkshire the drains have not been cleared and lots of drains are so blocked that they have weeds growing out of them. Climate change😐

[@sameshitagain6735]

Yep, and they have paved, everywhere, most places you go are all "pedestrianised" with no runoffs, and a shortage of drains.

[@vicicooper4720]

Climate change, really? Or poor housing planning, poor drainage and concreting over land?

[@victorsilvester78]

Well said.

[@vickyrowe393]

This is normal for uk but folk keep building on wetland and green belt. it should be a rain forest after all but millions of trees have been cut and I live on an island we need green belt and trees and wetland

[@RickPeake01]

Correct answer

[@zoeilobowdery8778]

I agree the government bleep building houses we don't need on farm land marshland and green belt destroying country side this is what you get its like this on the isle of Wight

[@Doug791]

My local council is planning to build 800 houses on a golf course , 200 houses on another golf course and 40 on one of our parks. We already have flooding problems.

[@RickPeake01]

You all wanted new housing but a barge might be a good idea

[@thecharactierss8410]

It's not that bad it's a few roads compared to Europe China, Brazil it's a puddle compared

[@CH-tp4wz]

Yeah ok we built our roads through low lying wetlands housing schemes on flood plains that's just the way we do things here.i mean you would think with the amount of rain we get we should know better by now but na!

[@missprimproper1022]

It's not due to "climate change" - we've always had loads of rain - it's the U.K. after all!

[@archangelrevelations9532]

Let's see how long this goes on for until they realize cloud seeding is a bad idea.

[@GlenB-qo7wd]

It doesn't matter what they do, you never stop it. I love that it doesn't stop em going to pub for a pint an food an sitting in beet garden 😂😂

[@petegarnett7731]

I am so old I remember the days when the councils used to clear the drains and the rivers were dredged where necessary-and roads repaired etc. etc. I wonder what happened to us?

[@Cripto244]

The weather forecasters did not know anything about this , no warning to residents. Shame

[@cpuuk]

Yes they did. Peeps should follow the UK Met Office weather reports on YT. But, what would people have done differently anyway, you can't move your house.

[@tonygledhill8827]

Climate change, ! It's called weather, it just gives media agencies somewhere to put their advertising slots between.

I’ll be more concerned about the states than I have asked with the weather they’ve been having poor buggers 🇬🇧

[@Cornz38]

If Thames water actually invested and repaired the drains and sewers then the damage would have been considerably less..

[@hanahana5740]

Wow.. England, too?

[@jedibob173]

Oh the joys of living near the river until winter comes then out with the sandbags and Wellington boots good old British weather never let's us down 😂😂😂

[@mindfuleats4517]

I was listening to a bizarre interview a few days ago about a trial plasma thunderstorm creating technology being tested in the uk. I thought it was total nuts. Hmm. Not so sure how

[@kaxar6954]

Look at the way they build houses in the UK. I would be shocked if all the houses are not flooded after a flash flood. I have need seen so many homes when you enter the front door it is at the same level as the street. No wonder penthouse apartments are preferred by foreigners.

[@bernardarnaud6808]

What about the incampments and the refugees that are sleeping on the streets and in parks

[@sameshitagain6735]

Maybe they get washed away.

[@petegarnett7731]

They are in 5 star hotels!

[@leemcarthy4550]

You don’t think our UK government allow immigrants to sleep on our streets do you ? They put them in fully paid 5 star hotels, feed them clothe them and give them a weekly spending allowance. It’s only our own natives who are forced to live homeless, oh and now our pensioners who have just been helped to freeze to death in winter for the loss of their winter fuel payment. Gotta keep the dinghy s#cum fed and housed some how haven’t we.

[@Confusediam2]

Perhaps they'll float back home
