Britain is less safe because of the Government's inability to get to grips with the small boats crisis, a leading figure in Donald Trump's administration has told GB News.
Sarah Rogers, the US Government's Under-Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy, also said the UK's "values" were changing because of a lack of control over the numbers of migrants crossing the Channel.
Small boat crossings into the UK from northern France are already over 40,000 so far this year.
In an interview with the People's Channel, Ms Rogers said: "Nobody's safe in the country if just anyone can walk in.
"And I would also add what every Brit and every American these days, unfortunately, intuitively knows, which is that when you change the people who live in the country, the country's values change too.
"The country's politics change too. The country's institutions change too."

Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood also recently unveiled sweeping reforms to the asylum system in a bid to deter foreigners, including making refugee statuses temporary.
