Build A Wall In The English Channel

I am raising money to build a sea border wall in the English Channel to protect the United Kingdom from illegal immigrants. Our government has said that they intend to turn migrant boats back and force them into French waters, but they won't need to do this in the first place if we just build a wall across the entire stretch of water.

In the last year or so, we have seen an unprecedented number of vessels crossing the English Channel, and it is clear that our border force needs help.

I have created a basic design for the border in the attached image, and I am proposing a border wall similar to what you would normally find in a swimming pool separating the lanes - except that this will be made out of a better quality plastic that is covered in a special adhesive that makes boats stick to it. Something like Bostik but a lot stronger.

I would probably need to hire a couple of hovercrafts to get it installed. This has been factored into the cost.

In the event that an illegal vessel comes into contact with it, it would remain stuck in place until the French navy arrives to rescue them, and if enough boats get stuck to it in one go, the whole thing could simply be towed back to the French coast.

I know that you are all asking the same question - what happens to all of the legitimate boats trying to cross the sea?

My solution would be a special gap in the middle of the border that can be opened and closed by a border guard on duty, something like you get outside a nightclub where the bouncer unclips it to allow people in before closing it again.

I have calculated that I will need £10,000 for the proposed stretch of the sea, but any excess funds will be used to make the border even longer reaching along to the Solent or even Cornwall.

Our government won't step up, so it's time to take action!

Cheers, and God Save Are King!

LEGAL NOTE: In the event that this project runs into difficulties during the research and development stage, all money (beyond the £2,970 that has already been given to a local school holiday hunger scheme) will be donated to a fund that we have set up locally that is supporting voluntary organisations who are working with people in need across Essex - this is currently being administered by friends at the Essex Association of Local Councils.

For clarity and transparency, I recorded my first Research and Development session:
