| P&O Ferries Make 800 Redundant... 14:44 - Mar 17 with 7261 views | STID2017 | Apparently with immediate effect, men in balaclavas manhandling them off the ships as they were staging a sit in. To be replaced with agency staff. Apparently been making a £100 million loss for several years, yet only now they take action to reduce costs and in such a callous manner ? |  |

Totally understand the need to rationalise the business, but the manner goes beyond the pale. |  |

In 2019 they registered their ships in another EU country to continue tax free entitlement. That was all about Brexit. All the profits go to Dubai, where they are owned, yet they dump their loyal workers at the drop of a hat. Despicable action. As they operate in British docks, then Boris and British government should certainly step in to stop this happening. |  |

I have to say Boris has had more to deal with than any British prime minister since WW2. He’s going to be remembered that’s for sure. |  |

He owns Brexit. If it turns out to be proven as a Putin funded illegal Brexit, then he must be jailed. Hope the bunga bunga parties in Italy were worth it. Partygate and the numerous massive covid vip ‘contract awards to mates’ are both entirely down to Johnson. Likewise the No10 flat refurb shite. He needs jail time, not sympathy.

If you look around the World, shipping and ports are an international business and have been for a long time. |  |

That’s true and something we’re not hearing about n our newspapers and on TV. There a thread on the Planetswans site and 1 of comments from Ebo explains post Brexit the government wrote to the U.K. explaining there was no longer any legal right of appeal to the courts for being sacked or made redundant. Redundancy arrangements are now as they were under UK law in 1965 - redundancy compensation arrangements only apply to staff over 26 years of age, on full time contracts and who have held those contracts for a minimum of 2 years. The company concerned have had financial support through the pandemic and are partly Russian owned and that the government can stop this by withdrawing the license from P&O that allows them to enter British ports.If the government wanted to they could also apply pressure re the docks in Tilbury which are owned by the parent company. (Thanks to Ebo for the info some of which I’ve repeated above). |  | |  |

Very naive last paragraph, if it's cheap people will use it, they won't care who owns it. Ryanair is a prime example |  |
