For **** sake it's a minor bit of local flooding that the press, as usual,
have made a major disaster. It may a bit of a problem for those affected
but in the scale of world problems, and even the rest of the UK, it is
insignificant.

All we are getting now is that the rest of us who have paid spent their
hard earned cash on household insurance should now pay for those who
cannot be bothered to do the same.

Are you claiming that those who have lost their homes were not
insured? How can you possibly know that? The fact is you don't;
you are making silly assertions to support your idiotic argument.

What you describe as a "minor bit of local flooding" is a disaster
for those who are actually affected.

The cost will be significant in GDP terms.


Put this into perspective, it's a small fraction of the money that is
going to be wasted on a few highly paid professional sportsmen in 2012.

Yes let's put this into perspective: Sod the GDP - significant though
it may be - what about the cost in terms of human misery?

And what the hell does your comparison with paid sportsmen
mean? Is this the politics of envy rearing its ugly head? Because
the comparison has nothing whatsoever to do with the flooding
disaster.

Hey, I'm sure that there are some exciting moments in Al Gore's life,
although my
imagination is lacking in regards to what those might be.
He's political failure who looked round for a bandwagon, saw a good one, and
jumped on. He is becoming very famous and turning into an international
superstar on the back of the global warming fiasco. Yet his own personal
consumption is megga!

Shorter version:
He hasn't digested the rout in 2000 and that's dishonour for him.
What we see here is a dispaired try to regain his honesty by hook
or by crook. IOW, it's simply compensation of an inferiority complex.
He needs the masses to approve him, regardless of if he is right or wrong.
The false science he uses is nothing more than a medium for him to
achieve his goal. This guy is simply a case for psychiatry.

False science? Strange, the climatologists who run realclimate.org said
his film was mostly sound. I'll trust them more than I trust you on that.

But it doesn't change the FACT that it is only localised flooding in an
area likely to flood.

That's what is being reported by the whinging Northerners featured on
the news reports and by those setting up funds to support them.

I'm sure many people were insured but the media haven't seen fit to
report their stories.

It doesn't change the fact that it only a localised bit of flooding that
the news media have blown out of all proportion to reality.

I'm not trivialising anything. I'm just pointing out a flood plain was
given that name long before the global warming hype. It seems to come as
some surprise to the media and the residents of such areas that a flood
plain gets flooded?

Of course it has come as a surprise. For most of those
affected such a flood has never before occurred in their
lifetimes - so rare is such rainfall.

If you think it was a "rout", you are an idiot with no knowledge of recent
history.
