Prime Minister Rishi Sunak was in Oxford today reviewing the response to local flooding. Simon Collings from OFA met him with two other local residents on Osney Island and spoke to him about the current flooding and the response. This included the need for support from the government for the Environment Agency and flood relief more generally. The Prime Minister then went into the EA yard where he met members of the team who have been responding to the current emergency. There’s a brief report on Yahoo here. After the visit, OFA wrote to the Prime Minister urging him to use his influence to secure support for the Oxford Flood Alleviation Scheme.
