A retired top naval chief has criticised using gender neutral terms for ships as "political correctness gone made".

It comes after the Scottish Maritime Museum stopped calling ships and boats 鈥渟he鈥� when those words on information signs were scratched out by vandals.

Admiral Lord West said "it is an insult to a generation of sailors... a ship is like a mother, they preserve us from the dangers of the sea".

He said pressure groups making organisations "change things was a very dangerous road we're going down".
