Berkshire floods: 'We need the police, we need the army'

Councillor Colin Rayner has spoken to the BBC about the flood situation in Wraysbury, Berkshire, and said that "we need help here".

Speaking to BBC Radio Berkshire, he said: "We need the police, we need the army. We've got 50 volunteers here, we've got the vulnerable people out of their homes, now we need to get everyone else out."

Several water gauges along the River Thames have measured record levels as flood waters continue to rise.
