This LBC listener told Nick Ferrari that any Grenfell Tower survivors found to be in Britain illegally should be kicked out.

The government has announced there will be a 12-month amnesty on any survivors of the Grenfell Tower fire if they were here without documentation.

Louis believes that the pressure on public services means we shouldn't be accepting any more people to the UK - especially those who were here illegally.

And Louis' response left even Nick shocked. Watch the video above to hear his comments.

Afterwards, some listeners tweeted criticism of the call.

But there were many others who agreed with Louis.
