[Mick Lynch, general secretary of the Rail,
Maritime and Transport union (RMT),]



Mick is Crazy
he wants something to be done right now
and he was all the Ships to be taken
over by the Government.
All workers returned to their jobs.




P&O
has given a massive pay out
to all workers that sign the contract of leaving



And the PM is in the EU
today.
So Mick shut the hell up

BBC has reported a Ferry in Northern Ireland
with new cheaper staff,
has been halted, due to a safety inspection?

It crazy, the CEO earns 325,000 a year plus perfomance bonuses yet he is happy to put the safety of passengers on people who earn 5.00 per hour

What on Earth are the bosses of P&O thinking ?!?!

Surely they can be held personally responsible for any deaths / tragedies ?

I am sure the Manager of that new team
can correct all the errors.
And then take the ship to Scotland.

Are these the same farmers who are wanting cheap labour on their farms? It's in their interest for P+O to get away with this.

P&O
would have gone under
if they did not change to cheaper staff.


The Sooner they set off, full of Lorrys
the better.

So what... are you so unaware you can't see the bigger picture here?

What industry do you work in... imagine if possible you are sacked and replaced with someone on £5ph. How do you live on that? How do they?

Petrol is (around) £1.60 a litre, energy and housing costs are the highest ever.

Explain to me how you survive.

[Grant Shapps hits P&O Ferries with an ultimatum
that he will ban it from British ports unless
firm's bosses ditch 'sweatshop pay' policy
The Transport Secretary has given an ultimatum
to P&O Ferries on pay rates
The Government could ban maritime ferries
from operating in British ports if they
pay under the UK minimum wage.]

Excellent and it will then set a precident so other organisations don't attempt to drive down wages.

Bankrupts the Company

then it closes, too bad. It's just not acceptable for a company to say we are only viable if we employ slaves
