Quizzed on which country they would like to live in given a choice, 8.5 per cent said the US - just over half the proportion who chose the UK.

Australia was the favoured homeland for 9.7 per cent of the 1,000 children aged 6-11 surveyed by OnePoll, and 9.3 per cent said they wanted to live on the Moon.

Simon Hood, sales and marketing director of international movers firm John Mason, which commissioned the research, said: 'We move thousands of families around the world every year and so we wanted to find out the thoughts of some of our most important and youngest customers.

'We were intrigued by the results we uncovered. 'Many Americans might be surprised by the impact that President Trump is having on their national reputation amongst children so young.

'This might explain why Australia topped the list of countries children would most like to live in, and why the moon proved more popular than the United States.'
