The French have been accused by the Conservatives of 'pathetically standing around on the beaches while hundreds of migrants embark on massive dinghies'.

Labour's attempts to tackle the English Channel crisis were also branded a 'complete laughing stock' after a record 230 migrants arrived on one dinghy yesterday.

Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood is 'presiding over a complete and utter farce' by giving the French £660million, according to Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp.

Ms Mahmood signed a new security deal with the French in April that will see the amount handed over by the British taxpayer over three years. She said it was a 'landmark agreement' that would 'really arm us to go after the people-smugglers'.

But Mr Philp visited a French beach last month and saw gendarmes standing by as small boats disembarked - and even refusing to arrest an apparent people-trafficker.

Now it's time to have your say in the Daily Mail's latest poll – should the UK be making the French do more to tackle the crisis?

In yesterday's poll, Mail readers were asked: 'Is university worth the money any more?' Out of more than 5,000 votes, 89 per cent of you said 'no' and 11 per cent said 'yes'.
