A defiant Gary Lineker has vowed to continue speaking up for the “voiceless” after he was criticised for apparently comparing the government’s crackdown on illegal immigration to Nazi Germany.

The Match of the Day presenter is due to be spoken to by BBC bosses and “reminded of his responsibilities on social media” after he commented on government plans to stop migrant boats crossing the Channel.
