Flood prevention in Wales ‘should be national priority, nowhere near enough money is being invested in flood prevention in Wales’, the leader of Plaid Cymru has said.

Homes were evacuated and roads were closed as some areas saw a month’s worth of rain within 24 hours.

A pub owner in Powys said his pub was flooded on Saturday – a year after it suffered more than £400,000 worth of damage during Storm Dennis.

The Welsh Government said it had invested more than £390m to manage flood risk in the past five years. Adam Price said the “severity and frequency” of flooding events “should convince us all that flooding needs to become a strategic national priority”.

Howard Baker, owner of the Bridge End Inn in Crickhowell, said the pub was flooded for the 30th time in 22 years at the weekend.The pub, which sits on the banks of the River Usk, was gutted during Storm Dennis last February. “It’s taken us a year to get the pub back to where it was and this flood has taken it all out apart from the top floor,” he told BBC Radio Wales Breakfast. “We have just spent 12 months and a lot of insurance money on doing it up, and now we are back to stage one again.” Click here to read more
