Europe betrays floodvictims
Woodlands Avenue,
Queensbury.
TRUST the European Union to be all flash and no substance.
Back in March empty promises were made that the Solidarity Fund would pour £110 million into flood-hit areas.
For once, we mistakenly thought, we were getting a little bit back.
Well indeed we are, but the "little bit" has now drained away to a "tiny bit" – about one third of what was promised.
I do hope that all flood victims and fair-minded people will remember this when the EU elections come around next year.
Jason Smith
(Chairman, UK Independence Party, Bradford)
