UK Trade Secretary rejects US President Trump's call for military intervention to tackle illegal migration across the Channel, emphasizing the Border Force's role in policing borders. As hundreds of migrants attempted crossings, the UK government reinforces efforts to deport unauthorized arrivals and deter future migration. The Home Office tightens rules on human trafficking claims, while the government's "one in, one out" policy with France faces challenges amidst ongoing migration issues.
