UK floods: PM says money 'no object' in relief effort

David Cameron: "Money is no object in this relief effort"

The prime minister says money will be no object as flood relief efforts continue across swathes of the UK.

David Cameron warned the severe weather was not over, saying: "Things could get worse before they get better."

Fourteen severe flood warnings remain in place in Berkshire and Surrey and two remain in Somerset.

Around 1,000 properties have been evacuated, thousands more are at risk and there are warnings of snow, high winds and more rain later and tomorrow.

The Met Office has issued an amber "be prepared" warning of wind on Wednesday as well as yellow "be aware" snow, wind and rain warnings.

It said the "potentially damaging winds" could be strong enough to bring down trees, causing transport and power network problems.

Speaking at a Downing Street press conference after returning from the flood-stricken South West, Mr Cameron said: "Money is no object in this relief effort. Whatever money is needed we will spend it."

thinking of the people who are not in their own homes tonight, and all the wild life.
whatever will happen to them and the people who keep animals and poultry.

It is about the government got their finger out and give the flood victims all the help they need.  hu****

thinking of all the people affected by the floods  wo3
why  why  why  are houses allowed to be built on natural flood plains?

I can't imagine what it must be like, my thoughts and prayers are with all  those affected. Govt promises are too little too late

There has been a Facebook page started up with people trying to find homes and offer homes to all the animals affected, I saw a tweet from the Harbourmaster at St Peter Port saying he is going to sleep in his uniform tonight because of the forecast
