    I have decided to retire at the end of this job. I will not be applying to be 1SL. I wish all the candidates the best of luck and will support the next 1SL as he continues the #rntransformation journey. @AdmTonyRadakin @RoyalNavy

    May the great God, whom I worship, grant to my country, and for the benefit of Europe in general, a great and glorious victory and may no misconduct in anyone tarnish it, and may humanity after victory be the predominant feature in the British Fleet @RoyalNavy #TrafalgarDay
