That's not what the media is saying it saying there are reports they're going to and replace with foreign labour. Whichever it is there'll be an absolute ****storm from the unions if they do

For those who wonder,
Pride of Hull is a Bahamas registered (ferry) in service with P&O North Sea Ferries.
P&O Ferries is a British shipping company (...) formed following the purchase of P&O by DP World.
DP World is an Emirati multinational logistics company based in Dubai.

so twitter says
