Houses are very expensive these days.
If you need a home and can only afford one, in your required area, that happens to be in a flood plain what are you supposed to do?
I'm sure 90% of the people who own houses in these areas know the risk, they would just hope that their council tax goes to good use making sure it doesn't flood after a wet period. But, the gubernment is insistent on sending it all abroad to ensure they all live happily ever after.
Who's lacking in common sense?
