Prime Minister David Cameron has said flood spending has increased on his watch when asked to deny a report claiming Government cuts had weakened flood defences.
Speaking during a visit to flood-hit areas in Worcester, Mr Cameron said flood spending had risen to £2.4 billion in the last four-year period with plans for more spending through to 2020.
