Andrew Pierce has hit out after a record number of migrants crossed the channel on Sunday.
A total of 534 people were detected crossing the English Channel on Sunday - the highest number in a single day so far this year, according to Home Office figures.
Speaking on GB News Andrew said: "I thought that they were stopping the boats?"
Mark White, GB News Home and Security Editor said: "Well they're certainly not stopping the boats, to answer Andrew's question.
"534 people crossed illegally yesterday in ten small boats. That is the single biggest daily total this year.
That takes the number to more than 6200 for the year so far. Which, to put that in context, is just under 30 per cent up on where we were at the same point last year.
"Now, you remember last year the government was trumpeting quite widely how their policies were working in terms of having a deterrent effect on the small boats crossing. It was down by a third.
"That has been cancelled out effectively by what we are seeing now."
