Paul - Thought you would like to know I have this morning sent the following to Floods Minister - John Healey MP
I seriously doubt if East Riding's £600,000 windfall will go far unless the drains are updated. Anyone living here can see that whenever it rains, there is always standing water present at the side of many of our residential
roads.
This rose to scary heights when we had the heavy rain a few Mondays back but major investment should be concentrated on eliminating the problem so avoiding the heartbreak many have had to endure and in many cases, still are, after the recent heavy rains.
I wrote something similar to Hull Daily Mail adding that the worse is to come when its time again to renew our insurance policies. It doesn't take much to realise that with all the thousands of insurance claims in the area, it's the householders that can afford to insure their properties, who will once again suffer financially when the premiums will undoubtedly be raised.
Thanks again for your interest in this matter Paul.
