British Prime Minister David Cameron was heckled by the victims of devastating floods during a visit to the worst-hit historic city of York in the United Kingdom.
'No more cuts to public services,' a woman shouted at Cameron.
However, Cameron, who yesterday described the flooding as 'unprecedented', defended his government's spending on flood defences and pledged to do 'even more'.
Hinting at a rethink on the flood defences, he said, "As I say though, let's have a look and see whether more needs to be done and whether the flood defences need to be made even higher than they are already," he said.
