Oh, if only it were that simple, simple name!
".....station big ships in the Channel....."
Again, in theory, that should work. The RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institution) have been out there countless times, but all they do is load them onto their boats and then sail back to the UK coast to offload them and house them in 4 and 5 star hotels. As for the Royal Navy, it's too costly (and pointless, anyway) to use it.
Also, sometime within the last two years, the UK paid France something around £53 million to ensure that these dinghy people wouldn't be using their coast to set off from. That was totally wasted money. After all, the French hate the British, so I presume that money was pocketed somewhere else.
The UK needs to end its agreement with the ECHR (European Court of Human Rights), but I somehow doubt that will happen, even though there'll be empty promises made about doing so.
I'm afraid it is more a case of wishful thinking on your part, but you're far from the only one. I and millions of others here in the UK want the same, but our government has no intention of doing such. C'est la vie, mon ami!
