Water is good and we all need it. I dont think anyone would disagree.
Too much water can be very bad, if its rain. If you live in say the Somerset levels the prospect of a week of heavy rain is not welcome and would be very bad.
However for most in the UK it would not be an issue, like 99% of the politicians on Question Time who do not live on a flood plane.
When discussing water its easy to go on about its benefits, how its good for you, how we need it to live and how without lots of water we would be in trouble. Its easy to ignore flooding problems if you have no prospect of being flooded.
Water is good as long as its controlled and we have control over it.
