Because they have Lucas refrigerators!

Ah, yes. I remember well the Lucas electrics on their automobiles and motorcycles. I believe the insulation on the wiring on My Morris Minor, Vauxhall, and BSA Rocket 3 was made of some kind of candy.

Lucas: The Prince of Darkness.

If you couldn’t repair the 9 candy sticks that make up a Morris Minors main wiring harness then I dont think you have any room to comment on a thread about a sophisticated Warship doing a 100 mile detour to have an unspecified repair carried out on her fridge plant in the comfort of a home port.

If you read the article, you will see that it appears to make sense as the ship will return to port, have the repair carried out then catch up with the rest of the fleet.

If there is even a story here, it should be how easily joe public is manipulated by the media.
