President Donald Trump signalled during his state visit to Britain that military intervention could be used to deal with illegal migration to the UK.
The US President said he had discussed the small boats crisis with Sir Keir Starmer at Chequers yesterday, warning illegal migration could 'destroy' countries.
Cabinet minister Peter Kyle later responded by suggesting the armed forces should remain focused on defence, but said the Navy can be called upon 'if needed'.
It comes as a second migrant was deported to France today under the Government's 'one in, one out' deal and more small boats began making the Channel crossing.
Now, have your say in the Daily Mail's latest poll – do you agree with Mr Trump's claim that Britain should involve the military in tackling illegal migration?
