The biggest rainfall event in history, over a thousand homes and businesses flooded, bridges down, towns and villages cut off, the emergency services and other agencies are literally up to their collectives arses in alligators and then Gordy sees an opportunity to become man of the people.
He's been on Skynews for the last 40 minutes or so talking to people at Cockermouth (which has changed overnight from Cocker-mouth to Cocker-muff on Sky, making schoolboys and others snigger more). To do this the overstretched emergency services would have to plan this and provide people to ensure Gordy can move from place to place without any hold up. And those peole would have to plan their whole morning about this visit rather than get on with what they know and do best. F*****g politicians
