The same as any other asylum seeker in the country. Make sure they are safe, assist them with their application to go to USA, and if USA reject their application, it's the UK's problem.

They can't apply for asylum in the USA until they are physically in the USA. How are we supposed to assist them with an application here?

Yes. We should not send them to USA without the USA approving of it.

They're not cattle, they're people. If they chose to go to the USA, that's not the same as us "sending" them.

We should most certainly stop them from getting in a kayak and leaving the Cornish coast for the Atlantic. Do you think we should do nothing about that if it were happening?

What if there's a large number of them trying to do it all the time? What if they're setting off in the middle of the night? Should we turn our beaches into an armed camp to stop them, or is it enough that we just stop the ones we can catch?

We patrol the waters, assuming there is a problem with people trying to leave the country like this. We have to do something, right? We can't do nothing. That is highly irresponsible.

Is patrolling the waters going to stop 100% of them from getting out to sea?

And btw, do you think France just emptied the English channel of any French ships? Or do you think that they patrol it, but if they see a dinghy crossing they wave it through?
