I'm dumb on this  .. do you mean some honest punters will have been gullible enough to donate that amount of cash.. for some whale stroking green nobbers to go and trash it .. in the belief of the cause of saving whales ?

I remember that going past when I was fishing off Beachy Head as a youngster. It was en-route to London for Mrs T to travel up the Thames on it. I remember it because of the noise that preceded it - only surpassed by a Lancaster at about 50' a few years later*.
The project manager on that - Steve Ridgway - became head honcho at Virgin Atlantic.
* I did go home inbetween times.
