Warship names and diplomatic offence

What names for a six-ship class would cause Britain the most diplomatic trouble?

The suggestion is victories over present allies, although no six-name list is supplied and the idea is treated as deliberately provocative.

Land victories over present allies, including the United States and France, are offered as the most provocative naming principle. Six individual battle names are not supplied. The suggestion is explicitly treated as something Britain would not do, illustrating the diplomatic sensitivity of public commemoration.
