Nigel Farage has set Shabana Mahmood a resignation ultimatum after two small boat migrants were charged over a terror plot.
Salam Ahmadyan, 36, from Liverpool, and Rahman Salehi, 34, from Salford, were arrested in the Manchester area and later charged with terror offences.
The two individuals charged are Iranian nationals who arrived via small boat in 2020 and 2023.
One of those charged had been granted asylum, while the other has a live asylum claim.
Reacting to the allegations, the Reform UK leader said: "Eleven years ago I warned that terrorists were using illegal routes into Europe to attack us. The establishment ignored me.
"Nine years ago I specifically highlighted the Iranian threat via illegal migration. Crickets.
"Six years ago I specifically warned about the invasion in the Channel, often taking to sea myself to document the horrors. Again, I was dismissed.
"In 2023, I reported on terrorists coming into Britain on small boats, just like these men did under the Tory Government.
"In 2025, in the House of Commons, I discussed Iranian terrorists at Dover. And in April and May of this year I cited sources that told me Iranian terrorists were already in our midst. They said shame on me.
"No. Shame on them. We now have a state of national emergency on our borders, and this Government is trying to open them to even more unknown individuals.
"We are inviting terror and horror into our communities. It must end now. And if this Home Secretary disagrees, she must resign."
