British woman and girls have been made less safe by the small-boats crisis, according to Robert Jenrick.
The Shadow Justice Secretary has said he fears for his own three young daughters, aged 14, 12 and ten, as illegal migrants with "deplorable attitudes towards women" cross the Channel.
According to Jenrick, "the situation in the Channel is a national security emergency" which "the Government won't admit".
His comments come as anti-immigration activists continue to take to the streets across Britain.
Tensions across the country are reaching fever pitch as angry Britons protest outside hotels being used to house asylum seekers.
"I certainly don't want my children to share a neighbourhood with men from backward countries who broke into Britain illegally, and about whom we know next to nothing," Jenrick wrote in The Mail on Sunday.
He added: "I don't want anyone else's family to have this forced on them either."

Jenrick, who said "it's no wonder fair-minded people are furious", made reference to a case involving two Afghan asylum seekers being charged over the alleged rape of a 12-year-old girl in Nuneaton.
He said: "My eldest daughter is 14 and already I worry about her safety as she starts to do things independently.
"It's challenging enough without this to contend with."
The Conservative calls for the Government to take tougher action on deporting criminals back to their home countries.

Yesterday, the Government announced new proposals under which foreign criminals will face immediate deportation after being sentenced.
Regarding the deportation of criminals, Jenrick added: "If countries won't take back their citizens, we should suspend the granting of visas and foreign aid until they do.
"Just recently it was reported Pakistan was refusing to take back three rapists until the UK allows direct flights between the two countries via its national airline, PA, which were grounded due to safety concerns.
"This is a country we give £133million in aid to. Enough. Starmer should suspend that money if the Pakistani authorities don't do the right thing."

The former immigration minister, who resigned from Rishi Sunak's government after saying that not enough was being done to tackle migration, has also called on the Ministry of Justice to do more.
Jenrick demands the department publish the background of criminals by their nationality, country of birth, visa status, asylum status and their method of entry into the UK.
He said if they failed to do so, it would make the Prime Minister "complicit in a scandalous cover-up".
