P&O Ferries has sparked outrage after sacking 800 seafarers and replacing them with cheaper agency workers.

Many of those fired were refusing to leave ships, leading to security guards with handcuffs being deployed to remove them.

The ferry operator, bought by Dubai-based logistics giant DP World in 2019, insisted the decision to cut jobs was “very difficult but necessary” as it was “not a viable business” in its current state.

Intressant historia bakom rederinamnet P&O:
P&O is an abbreviation of the full company name: The Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company. P&O began life as "The Peninsular Steam Navigation Company". In 1840 "Oriental" was added to reflect the company's expanding services eastwards beyond the Iberian Peninsular to Egypt and the Orient.
