Michael Eavis laments muddiest ever Glastonbury festival

Founder says he hasn't seen anything like it in the music event's 46-year history, and says it highlights climate change

Glastonbury has suffered the worst rain and mud since the festival began 46 years ago, consuming the region's entire supply of woodchip in the process.

Founder Michael Eavis said he will not consider moving the festival to later in the summer to avoid the wet, and blamed the torrential rain that hit the site in the weeks before the gates opened on global warming.
