Suella Braverman was booed by migrants at the overcrowded Manston migration centre, according to reports, after visiting in a military helicopter.
The government, and Home Secretary Ms Braverman in particular, are facing a legal challenge for keeping the migrants in overcrowded, disease-ridden conditions in the north-east Kent centre.
The government has defended the decision to fly in the helicopter, saying it was necessary for Ms Braverman to see operations in the English Channel. Ms Braverman confirmed steps are being taken to "immediately" improve the situation on the ground, according to the Home Office.
