Prime Minister David Cameron highlighted his government’s bid for European Union cash to help flood-affected parts of Britain on Thursday as he sought to bolster support for his campaign to stay in the 28-nation bloc.
Speaking to an audience at a BAE Systems Plc factory near Preston, northwest England, Cameron said the aid is an example of the support Europe can provide for Britain. About 16,000 homes in northern England were flooded at the end of last year as the U.K. suffered it wettest December in a century.
