We always have cold fronts coming into Britain from the Atlantic, bringing wind and rain. Would huge blowers, or something similar, be able to force them back out?

You need to figure out, "WHY do the cold fronts come to Britain?", then stop it. They come because air over land warms up faster than air over water. The warm air becomes less dense and rises. The colder, more dense, ocean air slides in under.
If you used huge blowers, assuming you could make blowers big enough, you would just bring in ocean air from the opposite shore. You are not going to stop the warm air from rising unless you seal the island in a canopy. I am pretty sure North shore air would not be a big improvement over your current fronts
You could stop it by refrigerating your air to something colder than the ocean air. The ocean air would not want to replace the denser cold air, but if it did, at least it would be a warm front :)
Sorry if I burst your bubble, but that's reality for you.

What you are suggesting - a method to force back the weather is unfeasible , it would cost to much for a start and the ecosystem of Britain (IE wildlife) would all suffer from such a drastic change.
Modern weather nowdays however is being affected by pollution and air emmisions, so what it to rain more, just go for a long car ride...

anything is possible, we are only limited by our minds, u've got a great idea on controlling winds using huge blowers, our govt has got the money and tech for that kind of thing, i'll talk it over with the committee, we might get in touch with u again for more specifics, once again congrats on your great idea, u don't know how much money and time we've been spending on research on how to control the climate

they could already administration small aspects of the elements. merely in the previous the olympic video games they fired over 1000 iodine rockets into the air above Beijing to stay away from it from raining on the day of the outlet ceremony. also, there are places in u . s . a . the position the hailstones are larger than golfballs and they avert this by flying although the clouds and freeing a chemical.

No. What you are suggesting, even if we knew how to do it, would require more energy than all the power stations in the UK put together.
"Controlling" the weather is only possible in a very limited way, such as "seeding" moisture in clouds to produce rain prematurely.

You can control the weather simply by putting your umbrella up. Or opening the window to let fresh air in. Not much else though.

No, I highly doubt we can control the weather, but we can control our perception of it, like whether 60 degrees is cold or just cool today in Houston, TX.

Nice idea. OK, what I reckon you have to to is speed up global warming. Get an SUV, get a cow (methane production) turn your heating right up, get all your friends to do the same, and stock up on suntan lotion whilst waiting for the inevitable temperature increase.
