However experts branded his comments "ludicrous excuses" blaming lack of investment on flood defences for the disaster and pointed to historic flooding which pre-dated global warming. They accused the Prime Minister of deflecting attention away from accusations Britain is woefully unprepared for severe weather. Climatologists say although devastating, the floods have nothing to do with global warming but are part of a natural weather cycle.https://climatechangedispatch.com/wp-content/uploads/images_pics8_cameron.jpg
