Submarines could be everywhere, everytime. Or, at least, your foe must assume that. However, most of the times someone inside UK government revealed that a sub was on its way south, or already there, he was not lying.

Remember that, back in 2010, when the drilling started and Argentina protested, The Sun published that a sub was moving to the islands. And, voilá, a couple of months later HMS Sceptre surfaced in Simonstown Naval Base (South Africa)
