Corbyn challenges PM over floods response

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn challenged the prime minister over the government's response to flooding in the UK.

He asked the prime minister whether lessons had be learned from the "devastating" floods that affected the country in January 2014.

The prime minister said they had. He told MPs that in response to the latest flooding the military was deployed "faster than ever before" and more money was given to communities "more quickly".

But he said there are "always" more lessons to be learned and pledged to review "everything that's been done".
