The " properly flood-proofed" comment refers to houses that were flooded last year so we're talking retro-protect here. The mind boggles as to how those houses can be effectively flood-proofed - what do they do, build a bloody great flood barrier round them like the dykes in Holland, or the Levees in Mississippi?
Also, if a ton of money is going to be spent to protect householders from flooding, how about a bit of evenhandedness that might recognise that river users have an interest as well?
