Regardless of what we do about asylum, cracking down on the gangs is the right thing to do.
You can't seperate these things. The gangs are a result of a failed asylum system that goes back multiple governments and decades. The dangerous small boat crossings are a partial result of the crackdown on people entering on HGVs via ferrys/the tunnel. You can't just solve the issue with more policing and boarder enforcement.
