Theresa Coffey blamed the wrong sort of rain for the Storm Babet chaos – 17 hurricane force comebacks

So apparently the government fucked up on flood planning because….
“The rain was coming from the wrong direction”

No wonder you can’t separate satire from the real thing these days. https://t.co/ZMXTmmldUF

In a crowded field, Coffey is the most embarrassingly inept and uncaring minister.
Her motivation for going into politics is a mystery. https://t.co/sXpiTlm84G— Peter Smith (@Redpeter99) October 24, 2023

Sneaky rain, taking us by surprise by coming from the ‘other’ way, not to mention even sneakier Spring tides in Autumn… https://t.co/z3P7EY9Rza

Imagine a party so bereft of talent that it appoints Therese Coffey as Environment Secretary. https://t.co/MHZ2DJOYKH

My friend’s neighbour died in the most recent floods, there wasn’t sufficient warning for her to leave her house in time because Therese was surprised by rain from “the wrong direction”. If she had any integrity she’d resign. She won’t. https://t.co/WYIFT5kCRi

I’ve worked in the environment for 25 years and cannot recall a Secretary of State who so obviously hated the issues of which she is in charge, and grabbed every chance to show it.
It is a mind blowing appointment, whose anniversary is tomorrow.

And talking of Theresa Coffey, here she is out in the wild talking to victims of the flooding and it really is an incredible, excruciating watch.
It’s bad enough dealing with your home being destroyed in a flood without that useless bag of doubt turning up for 30 mins, not knowing why she’s there, being defensive despite the government having done nothing, then fucking off again.
Therese Coffey, everybody. pic.twitter.com/SKEZoRKdOs
