naomi beat me to it.
If the EU feels a benefit in resourcing Libya it ought to be for valid reasons other than paying them to fund coastguards that Libya already ought to have. The EU can fund their own coastguards, on patrol boats. (But they will have to be trained on identifying south, for when they need to tow any low quality boats they encounter, back to Libya.)

Zac seems to have plucked a phrase out of the ether to blow in and out on. Where apart from on your posts has "free" or a cost free solution been extolled?
Perhaps a radical idea might be, to refuse to spend £170 million on bribes to corrupt "officials" and spend it on say............................. effective Eu border controls.

//More money is the only answer to every problem, for certain problem solvers//
Note that important first word. Not spend the money already squandered more wisely ......just more money. The answer to any question is always more money, not more thought, or more accountability, or more effort, just more money. Like some wonder panacea. The solution of the unimaginative or idle, or both. Now where you get the impression that "More money is the only answer", strongly suggests that I oppose a "paid" for solution is another mystery to contemplate, although you constant reference to free solutions certainly isn't.

Well I thought that perhaps you might like to take a turn, after all I have made 2 suggestions. Then again like all who are themselves bereft of ideas or suggestions, you are keen to be critical of anyone who is prepared to explore for solutions. There used to be a word for that sort of attitude, escapes me for now though. Perhaps it will come to me as I take my stroll along the Prom. To coin a phrase "I'll be back". :))
