The funding announcement was made late on Monday as more evacuation orders were issued and the Bureau of Meteorology warnedREAD MORE:"We have seen some of these impacted communities being hit by floods for a third and fourth time in 18 months, which is extremely distressing to the residents of these communities," federal Emergency Management Minister Murray Watt said, in a statement released through the State Emergency Service shortly before 11pm on Monday.

The Commonwealth-State Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements support is available in the local government areas of Blacktown, Blue Mountains, Camden, Canterbury Bankstown, Campbelltown, Central Coast, Cessnock, Fairfield, Georges River, Hawkesbury, Hornsby, Kiama, Lithgow, Liverpool, Northern Beaches, Penrith, Shellharbour, Shoalhaven, Sutherland, The Hills, Wingecarribee, Wollondilly and Wollongong.

Sounds like a Police Prick”..!!

Only human I say. Their car engines etc all need to be waterproof. Where are the hover crafts, now that would help in a crisis.

ACAB always and forever

Australia's smartest cop

The water is not that deep. The fault lies with inept driving. You don’t plough into water and swamp your electrics with a huge bow wave.

Only tax payers money who gives a crap, just go for it

🤣🤣 Just proving it doesn't take brains to be a cop.

Those officers should be suspended without pay, how can you expect people to stay out of flood water when the police do that

Well there you go. To think the pigs on my farm love playing in the water 🤷‍♂️

Any viewer of Inspector Rex would know a well-trained Alsatian is smarter than the average cop.

His first job is to do a Google Image search on the words Dumb Cunt, and wait for his photo to appear as the first result.

No comment

Are these cops amateurs?

Probably trying to get to someone in need

What do cops do when their vehicle gets stuck? Call ACAB

Did they fine themselves? fictillius

Do as we do.👀

Deadshits

Police give the safety warnings to people. Says everything

Honestly this is preferable to them stripping children at festivals.

oink oink

but why

lol

😂🤣😂 Fucken hell. There is no zero point for IQ. We do not think of a person as having no intelligence (although we may be tempted to make that evaluation upon occasion). - Emory University Psychology department

Highway Patrol, no doubt...NSWPolice 😂

It kind of explains why we keep seeing Aussies drowning from driving through flood waters, they truly dont have ears. Makes it really hard to feel sorry for them ..

Need flood capable police vehicles ChrisMinnsMP Dom_Perrottet NSW

Do as I say…

Gives a new meaning to 🐖 in water.

Tax payers money 💰 gone what a waste

They should be made to pay for the damage out of their wages and fined heavily!!🙄

Media says RECORD FLOODS highest in 40 years. Wouldn't floods 40 years ago be record.

One please explain coming up and a BMW, tut-tut.

'Do as I say' doesn't apply to them 🤡🌍
