"Utilise the Navy to turn them back" The uk has around 11,000 miles of coastline, the Navy has 66 commissioned vessels. If you deployed the entire navy to "patrol" the coast, that gives each vessel over 160 miles to monitor... obviously that's one dimensional. If they monitored just the first 10 miles out, they would need to observe 1,600 square miles of sea. That doesn't actually sound achievable to me. Cal | |||

Cal" If Border Force and the RNLI are managing to pick them up, I’m sure the Navy will manage to turn them around. I’d argue it’s all about desire. Do we want thousands of military age men sponging off us or the French? Baguettes all round, I reckon | |||
