Now that you've all gone off half-cocked, it seems to me the whole point of 'bring Britannia back' is not to have 'a new home for the BRF'. It's for use in overseas trade missions, the whole tone of the article seems to me to be about officials using it to impress people, not because the Queen deserves a new boat.
The people who want to bring it back, are the officials who had personal experience of its value in the past in terms of overseas trade, NOT for the royals to go on holidays. Can no-one see the benefit of British officials, freed from the shackles of the EU, taking movers and shakers overseas on a magnificent evening cruise on Britannia, hosted by members of the world's most famous Royal Family, with the Band of HM's Royal Marines (best military band in the world) serenading them as the sun goes down? Really?!
I despair at some of the knee-jerk reactions on this website, I really do.
