Just spent an hour chest deep in icy flood water in Mytholmroyd, evacuating OAPs from their flats. No authorities here. Terrible scenes.

@BenMyers1 For all the good sympathy can do (nothing, I know) I am appalled and so so sad about this.

@BenMyers1 Shit. Great work, and of course you do it for people if you can, but horrible it's been left to all of you who live there.
