An honest mistake. They were planning to Photoshop it back in the Thames at some point, I'm sure. Covered with psychedelic colors and peace symbols so as not to spook the tourists into thinking there was still a war on.

Did it appear for a few minutes at the de-gaussing station near the Norfolk Naval Station?

They should of airbrushed the Houses of Parliament instead, no need to advertise that place in the current state of things

People are really over-reacting to this, yes ok HMS Belfast is a very important piece of our history and it shouldn't have been airbrushed out. There are far more important things to get angry about in this country rather than something stupid like that, sure it's annoying that it has happened but, I can find other things of greater importance to get annoyed at. The economy, the tory idiots who are running this country etc...

Well, on the other hand, it IS Nov. 11th tomorrow, and that is a bit of an insult given the day.

I don't think there's an over-reaction, it's not like it's completely drowned out the rest of the news. So... I say let it be noticed.
