Ahead of the press conference, Reform’s home affairs spokesman Zia Yusuf said Britain is “being invaded”.

He added: “Tory and Labour governments responded with a free ferry service and free hotels.

“Reform UK will respond by launching the largest military operation in the English Channel since World War Two.

“Nigel Farage will order his Majesty’s Royal Navy to ensure that not a single unauthorised vessel crossing the English Channel makes it to the shores of the United Kingdom.

“Those who attempt it will be intercepted by our Armed Forces and returned to France.”

He said the move would make the border “impenetrable” and that “nobody” will be able to make it to UK shores via small boat.
