Would you need a blockade? I think MBK said previously that there is plenty of time to intercept each boat as required because they go very slowly and are easy to track.
Ssssssshhhhhh, don't mention Reform.

You'd best brush up on UCLOS
Why are you repeating what I've just said? Do you not read my comments before responding?
That'll be up to the rescue boat not you, nor the UK government. And if they do choose to land them in France it will be for medical emergency.
If you don't claim you become an illegal immigrant.
We've gone from shooting the boat full of holes, to pushing them with a boat hook, to nudging them with more powerful craft, to splashing them or blowing at them.
What a climb down.
Push back, however it is achieved is illegal.

Intercept to rescue = OK,
Intercept to push back = illegal and endangers lives.
I've no idea. I was just discussing the mechanics.

It started with the Reform councillor suggesting shooting the boats to sink them, except he didn't mention "to sink them".
It has now arrived at mbk suggesting a bit of wind and water to persuade the refugees to turn around.
And before you go down one of your silly avenues of nonsensical repetition, I suggest you read up on the last 30 odd pages.
it'll save me repeating myself, and you looking daft.

Why would you want to sink them? Surely MBK has a much better sollution to the problem. I would say shooting the boat is too extreme unless it is carried out to stop it rather than to sink it.It started with the Reform councillor suggesting shooting the boats to sink them, except he didn't mention "to sink them".

Sorry, I have no intention of repeating the last 30 pages because you can't be bothered to catch up.

It’s almost like they practiced it using jetskis. Oh wait they did.
