So the flooding there has been in Sheffield and the surrounding towns could have been prevented if the rivers had been properly dredged. Why? Because under EU law and a multitude of other EU directives those rivers in and around that part of Yorkshire were not allowed to be dredged. EU law supersedes UK law - again. https://www.express.co.uk/news/weather/1201600/sheffield-floods-video-uk-weather-warning-flooding-met-office-latest-update
