Oh, come on....!

I've not been affected by flooding, and the high winds, although a nuisance, have not caused any real damage and the lights have stayed on.  I feel sorry for those who have not been so lucky, but most of them seem to accept that this is the price they pay for living where they do - which tends to be in the sort of nice places where we all like to go on holiday.  But there are always those who seek to find someone to blame for their misfortune, and it certainly seems that some of the power companies and local authorities have fallen short of the mark, but to blame the government - or even more bizarrely the Prime Minister personally - goes too far.
