‘Seriously wrong’: flood-hit Lincolnshire residents at odds with Reform MP over climate
AI Summary
Residents of Boston, Lincolnshire, are critical of their Reform UK MP Richard Tice's stance on climate change after severe flooding in January 2023 impacted over 30 homes. The area is highly susceptible to flooding, with 91% of buildings in the Boston and Skegness constituency at risk. While experts attribute the increased rainfall to climate breakdown, Tice has publicly dismissed human-caused climate change. Some affected residents express anger that Tice, despite acknowledging the flooding and promising assistance, has not personally visited or provided support in the aftermath, even a year later. They feel his climate change denial is at odds with the reality of the flooding crisis they are experiencing.
