Re: UK ambassador to the USA resigns over leaked cables

The frigate / Type 45 news seems to be being over-dramatised by the media.

It was a pre-planned handover, and there will be two ships there for only a brief period.

The reality though is there were already plans to send Duncan to join the frigate HMS Montrose already based in the region.

Montrose has been working hard and is due to undergo routine maintenance. Her crew who have been working at a heightened tempo in recent weeks will also need a break.

Both warships will be operating together in the region for a short period.
