One resident told Boris Johnson : "I'm not very happy about talking to you so, if you don't mind, I'll just mope on with what I'm doing. "
Mr Johnson said he understood the strength of feeling as "you cannot underestimate the anguish that a flood causes".
Shelley Beniston, who is organising supply runs in Fishlake, told Mr Johnson there had not been enough help from authorities.
When the Prime Minister asked if there was anything he could do to help, she replied: "I think it's more or less all Coming In now, a little bit Too Late though. "

Speaking in Warwickshire on Wednesday evening Mr Johnson added: "We as a country need to be investing in the long term in flood defences.

Scott Godfrey, landlord of the Hare and Hounds, has been using the pub as a refuge, giving affected residents accommodation and hot food as well as delivering meals to people stranded in their homes.
He said they had been let down by The Council "big style" because it had rowed back on its promise of helping with provisions to send out to villagers.
"We had 45 residents that were stranded who wanted meals. Luckily everyone pulled together and we managed to get some hot meals out," he said.
