I can see zero ways in which this will backfire on them within 2 years
Floods come from rain, which is weather, and that’s sort of the climate, and the climate is woke now so we won‘t have anything to do with that
Having been to Lincolnshire once, I think this is probably something I would approve of.
Be fucking hillarious when the small boats make it to Grantham using flood plains
>The new administration said the change would save money and simplify the council without harming efforts to fight flooding.
Scrapping the committee that deals with flooding won’t harm the effort to fight flooding? Reform logic checks out.
They merged it with the Environment committee and increased meetings from 4, up to 8 times per year.
Bit of a misleading headline.
>this action was taken to reduce waste.
Also in the same breath
> the environment committee will now be larger and meet 8 times a year rather than 4
What exactly are you saving here?
If you want a good example of how all over the place Reform are as a party. We have have 4 different local administration in areas severely hit by flooding over the last 3 years (Lincolnshire, Derbyshire, Staffordshire and Leicestershire) all taking completely different actions in relation to flooding. From increasing funding to cutting funding to outright ignoring it. Completely rudderless.
> A newly elected Reform UK council has abolished a flooding committee, despite other parties calling for it to be saved
Floods are a woke myth, my house has never been flooded.
No policy at all…just trying to copy MAGA playback…I’d be embarrassed…but they are all coonts.
Luckily Lincolnshire isn’t a coastal, lowland area prone to flooding.
Did they campaign on “Reform UK – we’ll return Lincolnshire to the sea”
You can imagine them 8000 years ago stood on Doggerland as the seas encroached saying ‘this glacial retreat claptrap is woke, it’s still icy in Greenland, we’ll be fine’
“Whether you think it’s man-made or a natural cycle of events, we won’t neglect flooding,”
Admittedly poor land management exacerbates flooding, but climate change is far from being a natural cycle of events. At least on the scale and the time frame that anthropogenic climate change is happening at.
Glad I moved away from that shithole. Flood the fens!
So this is funny, I was riding my motorbike through a part of Lincolnshire that’s known to flood and badly – you would not believe the amount of reform adverting.
Brilliant.
“Lincolnshire suffered some of the worst flooding in its history during from deluges in Storm Babet and Henk, along with fresh flooding in January.”
Fucking daft cunts, this is gonna be a disaster
Non ironically I’ve seen MAGA say water is woke multiple times in recent years. Absolutely ridiculous.

WTF , that’s insane, rather they should make it better and start dredging rivers, canals and cleaning all drains , so that Even small showers don’t cause flooding. Unless offcourse there’s too much bureaucracy and they have alternate solutions ready.
Facts remain even when ignored. I feel sorry for the council officers who are trying to do a serious job.
Isn’t Reform’s climate change policy basically “it’s too expensive to reverse climate change so we should just adapt to it instead” if so, removing the flood committee seems a bit counter-intuitive.
I’m sure this will have no consequences for one of the flattest counties in our country….
I wonder if the locals were consulted on this before it happened. Haha, what am I saying, of course they weren’t. Good work, Reform voters
People should be able to swim with their own bootstraps.
Actually solving problems is difficult. Breaking things is easy. Reform’s reformations is just them taking a sledgehammer to everything as its easy and makes their stupid supporters think they’re actually doing something worthwhile.
This is what happens when you’re that thick you vote for reform…….
As harsh as this sounds I really hope this goes tits up, because the people who voted for them need to learn that they’re Trump ideology 2.0.
So they’ve allegedly cancelled the jobs that were to be provided by clean energy & now flood warning systems.
This is just dumb as bricks, even if you’re climate deniers, Lincolnshire has always been vulnerable to serious flooding. This isn’t a political position, it’s an issue of protecting your constituents from predictable damage.
As someone a little involved with the flood group in my area.
We have to work with multiple groups including the council because they all do slightly different things and flooding isn’t just caused by the rain.
Has the waterways been cleared and maintained.
Have the sewers be kept clutter free.
Have the run off points been done.
Are farmers doing g their land correctly.
Has silt been removed.
And lots of other things. No one part of the council/government deals with this. It’s why they are called flood GROUPS and not a flood team because there are many many people involved in minimising risk.
This is…. short sighted and I hope no one dies because of it.
Well now i know what Labour will be able to campaign on come the next local elections.
As someone who used to design developments for flooding I would say councils are generally pretty awful at understanding how it works… But it’s still good to have extra checks on designs
Lincolnshire gets what Lincolnshire wanted. Absolut epitome of little Britain. The never seen an immigrant crowd moaning about mosques and Sadiq Khan.
We all know that flooding is because God isn’t happy that Farage isn’t PM. FFS. Doge dickheads.
Wonderful, can’t wait to see this bite them in the arse when the rains hit later this year.
This is nonsense and a sensationalist headline to piss people off.
It’s likely to have merged with a sub-committee and added to an existing environment agenda, rather than been scrapped.
I’m assuming they think flooding is woke or something along those lines
given I live in South Kesteven, I am really good to have to pay attention to Reform, and treat them as a current threat, not a possible future threat.
Their behaviour since taking over various councils should be enough to stop their rise in national polls. People don’t want this crap.
Why plan for floods when taxpayers can just pay out of pocket later
