Trump tells Congress 'do your job' on programme for immigrant 'dreamers'

Donald Trump has suggested it is up to Congress to ultimately decide the fate of hundreds of thousands of young immigrants brought into the US illegally as children.

The president tweeted, "Congress, get ready to do your job - DACA!", referring to Barack Obama's Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals programme, which has given nearly 800,000 young immigrants a reprieve from deportation and the ability to work legally in the US.
