More details
Perhaps they have forgotten we use to have a service that was perfectly suited to that role
The Royal Naval Auxiliary Service (R.N.X.S) was a uniformed, unarmed, civilian volunteer service, administered and trained by the Royal Navy to operate in the ports and anchorages of the UK
It maintained training units, and vessels at most major ports in the UK. and was formed in 1963 The service was disbanded on 31 March 1994 Back when the nuclear threat was not as serious as it has become today.
This along with the new threats ,of terrorism,illegal immigration or borders are in crises.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Naval_Auxiliary_Service
