I can't believe this bollocks is the lead story on todays news. "A few houses got damaged, and insurance companies might have a low 7 figure pay out".
When this happened a few years ago in Dudley (which was more powerful, btw), our reaction locally was "I thought a lorry crashed into the building, but it hadn't, so I went back to sleep", not "Oh no, a few pensioners have had a few slates knocked off their roof, we'll have to condemn their houses"
This is a story for page 19 of The Sun, not main headline on the evening news. I guess this is what they mean by 'slow news day'.
