BRITAIN-POLITICS-WEATHER
British Prime Minister David Cameron (C) meets with RNLI lifeboat crewmen (L-R) Ray West, Chris Hardy, coxswain Alan Friary, Mark Friary, Tony Watling Darrell and Niery King during a visit to Wells-next-the-sea in Norfolk on December 9, 2013 to see flood damage and meet members of the emergency services and other agencies. British authorities evacuated thousands of people from coastal towns in Britain over the weekend as a huge storm lashing northern Europe unleashed the worst tidal surge in 60 years. Britain's Meteorological Office confirmed it was the worst tidal surge since catastrophic floods hit North Sea countries in 1953, killing more than 2,000 people. But defences along Britain's east coast have been strengthened since then and while some were breached by the latest surge, most of them held. AFP PHOTO / POOL / ARTHUR EDWARDS
