It all sounds a bit dodgy, some of this is caused by the UK government not giving H&W the ship refit order.

But other things on financial health and loans(see old bel tel articles) sound iffy.

I thought the government had committed to build 3 RN supply ships there?

H&W also went off piste, by trying to start a rival ferry service between Penzance and the Scilly Isles, not just building the ship, but also running the service. The service was cancelled the week it was due to start.

You are right, my mistake that order is still on. 3 other ship jobs went to Spain.

That ferry idea is very strange, totally not their core business.
