Nigel Farage has proposed that Reform UK would initiate the largest military operation in the English Channel since World War Two to prevent small boat crossings. The plan involves deploying the Royal Navy to intercept and return dinghies carrying asylum seekers to France. However, retired Royal Navy commander Tom Sharpe has criticised the proposal, stating that the plan lacks substance and that military warships are not best utilised for ferrying people around in this manner.
