It's easy to have all the right answers when you are several thousand miles away, don't know the first thing about what you are blathering on about, and not responsible for any of the consequences. There is not a nation in the world that could do as well as ours is doing at dealing with something of this magnitude and there never has been...especially in the era of 24 hour on-site TV camera coverage so that everyone is allowed to second guess your every move.
The "exotic" city of New Orleans, like GB, has many living on the dole and is run by liberals, who have pretty plainly made a total mess of things long before any of this happened, and, like liberals everywhere, now want to whine and point fingers and lay blame when their fuck ups are brought to the attention of others. It is also plain that most socialists...and make no mistake, GB is a largely socialist nation these days...have no conception of how our system of government operates (or at least is supposed to operate) so that an "instant" response where the federal government jumps in and takes charge is simply not lawfully do-able. Here the feds are supposed to be asked for assistance by the state government before they rush in...but that will never prevent the know-it-alls...which Mr. "Usually Low Profile" Dacre is obviously one... from spouting off.
