Burrowing badgers blamed for catastrophic flooding that forced hundreds from their homes

Occupants of at least 590 properties in and around Wainfleet were forced from their homes this week after more than two months' worth of rain fell in just two days.

PhoebeS1992 Halarious article thanks telegraph I needed a laugh. Two months of rain & undregged river nah that doesn't cause flooding. Hope it's definitely badgers 😂

PhoebeS1992 Not only the hair but the idea is foolish saying dr bryan

PhoebeS1992 I wondered when someone else would get the blame , the badgers for God’s sake ,why not the Enviromental department

PhoebeS1992 Of course it was nothing to do with chronic underspending (austerity) by Government and cuts at the local council. Oh no sir-eee, nothing to see there, move right along, while we blame the badgers. What kind of idiots do they think we are?

PhoebeS1992 I thought it was too much water that caused the flooding

PhoebeS1992 Nothing to do with flood defences, blame a badger how ridiculous

PhoebeS1992 Badgers and Jeremy Corbyn having underground meetings with Hamas and the IRA, I reckon. Boris Johnson will sort this out, he’s the best.

PhoebeS1992 Proper evidence of this needed, had this flooding happened before? but why spend so much money on building new sets if it wasn't needed? Were a lot of badgers killed by the flood. Every sympathy to home owners who are affected, hope insurance covers this disaster.

PhoebeS1992 Oh ffs!!

PhoebeS1992 First blame TB in cattle and now flooding what is it that they hate badgers?

PhoebeS1992 Hmmmm.... Blame the badgers and then maybe people will stop trying to stop culls? Or am I getting too cynical in my old age.

PhoebeS1992 That's ridiculous

PhoebeS1992 They were burrowing to move the goalposts........

PhoebeS1992 So badgers burrowing are to blame for flooding and not the two months of torrential rain? Call me skeptical but it sounds like someone is looking for a reason to cull a few badgers.

PhoebeS1992 Here we go. Kill all the animals in a pathetic attempt to undo the damage humans have caused.

PhoebeS1992 Anything or excuse to kill even more of the poor animals. If built of right material animals couldn't destroy

PhoebeS1992 What utter rubbish.

PhoebeS1992 'Burying badgers' causing flooding. Nonsense

PhoebeS1992

PhoebeS1992 For real ...the councillors name is Mick Rust....and he’s concerned about badgers.
