Prime minister reacts to train derailment

Following the death of three people after a passenger train derailed in Aberdeenshire, Boris Johnson says it's important everyone works together to ensure "nothing like this happens again".

It is thought the train hit a landslide after heavy rain and thunderstorms which caused flooding and travel disruption across Scotland.

The prime minister said it would be a good idea to look at the impact of substantial rainfall on vulnerable infrastructure.
