Flooding = more cash

"FLOODING" = cash to central Government !!

The floods of 2007 and 2008 resulted in extensive damage to many local buildings and areas. However, there still appears to be no overall development scheme, plus the remedial work to repair the homes affected across the county is estimated to have generated a staggering additional £1.2 billion for the Government in VAT and the Tax on profit (the Conservative Party states)

Why therefore is it the Government is only willing to give Local Authorities a mere £49 million to rectify the damage ?? ..?? and why is it that some 15 months on there are still families up and down the country STILL in temporary accommodation?
