9 News: An angry Eugowra resident has confronted NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet over the state's emergency response to the flood disaster. Peter Jones watched his family and friends get rescued after being swept away in the "wall of water" which hit the town.

Jones confronted Perrottet about what he says was a lack of warning, lack of emergency response and lack of telecommunications available when the town was hit by floodwaters. There was a long period when residents couldn't contact police and coordinate where help was needed.

Jones: We had no food, no clothing, no one telling them what was going to happen next because no one was here. What's your answer to some of them before I keep going?

Perrottet: Whatever we can do to make sure that is fixed, we'll do that.

What crap. It's a carbon copy response to what Northern Rivers residents got back in Feb-Mar i.e zero. Despite all the reviews, the mea culpas, the excuses, promises to be better leaders going forward - it's still the same. Don't forget that Australians pay amongst the highest taxes in the world - but what do we get for it when the shit hits the fan? Nothing. Well nothing but a money sink-hole of bureaucratic uselessness.

The fact that there was no warning is criminal. The wall of water was from a dam release - not the rain - so an official flooding of the town - but still no warning ...?! Unfortunately it's another one of those New Normal crimes where no one ever gets held to account.

I remember touring around with my chainsaw after Nepartak in Taidong to help clear-up when i saw the army arrive to help at the school for mentally disabled in Taidong city - it made my eyes fill with tears to see them come in a time of real need. It's not like that in Aus, sadly. The tears are all from desolation, abandonment.
