(not satire – it’s the UKIP!)
UPDATE – Oh dear. The infamous Westboro Baptist Church have tweeted that they endorse UKIP because of this story. Get out of that one Nigel:

UKIP councillor David Silvester – who resigned from the Tory Party over gay marriage – has written a letter to his local newspaper blaming the recent flooding across Britain on same sex marriage.
The letter appears in the Henley Standard but has not appeared online. Requests to the newspaper for a copy of the letter have gone so far unheeded.
So here’s the letter in full taken from photographs of the hard copy taken by Tamsin Borlase and posted on Twitter – big thanks to her:

I hope Nigel Farage finds something more substantial than a tin-foil hat to protect him against the fallout from this kind of nasty homophobic nonsense still lurking in the ranks of his party.

I blame the floods for UKIP. In recent times the water levels have increased to such an extent that all sorts of unwanted hubris is awash in our high streets and gardens – ukip here, ukip there, ukip every bleedin’ where. To every question UKIP is the answer in a country that’s gone down the toilet. I mean this most sicerely friends

This would be UKIP the party which would ban the teaching of the physics of climate change in schools… Okaaaaay.
I think the flooding correlates quite well with Nigel Farage being on TV, mind you – I’m sure there’s a link.

The floods could correlate with a lot of things;
1) My thesis is due to be handed in soon and my writing has become more vigorous with time and grip on sanity lessened. This, through the butterfly effect, has caused the floods.
2) The amount of marketing went up over the Christmas period to achieve astonishing new levels of utter bullshit, enough to enrage even the laziest of gods to call wrath down upon the world in the form of a little extra rain and the consequences of poor drainage.
3) I’ve smoked ALOT more pot recently than usual, a clear sign I’m guilty of something. In a manner similar to 1) the smoking of said pot has caused the floods, for which I’m incredibly sorry.
4) God hates gay people
5) It’s a single incident that could not be predicted but belongs to the category of extreme weather events that will become more likely with the observed change in the climate.
Take your pick.

I thought the maxims from preachers were “into every life a little rain must fall” or “you can’t have rainbows without rain” or “every cloud has a silver lining”.

Does David Silvester have a programme on The People’s Voice yet, or does he intend to join the debating panel on the Alan Titchmarsh show at all? Date: Sat, 18 Jan 2014 15:09:59 +0000 To: barbara1926@live.co.uk

Does there have to be a reason at all for climate change, I’ve lived through plenty of it?
