Odd that....show the Bully Boys they are going to get their hind ends kicked and they leg it.

Not much changes over the years when it comes to stuff....really.

If you appease them...they only grow bolder......remember that "Peace in our time...." stuff from yesterday year?

So no attempt to board, no warning to stop just they happened to be in the same area which is their territorial water. Looks like Foriegn Office PR Dept is at work.
