The UK government rejects US President Trump's suggestion of military intervention to stop Channel crossings. Trade Secretary Peter Kyle stated the UK Border Force is responsible, with the Navy providing support when needed, but prioritizing national defense. While a second migrant was returned under a new deal with France, hundreds more are en route. The government aims to swiftly remove those without the right to stay, hoping this will deter future crossings. Despite over 5,500 migrant arrivals since August, the Home Office plans further deportations.
