On a bright March morning a year ago, it took just a few hours for P&O Ferries to bring the careers of its seafaring crew to a shocking halt. Recalling the fleet to port, it summarily sacked 786 people, many by video message – with foreign agency staff lined up to take their place.

No thanks, I'd rather swim across than give them a Penney!

Totally agree, I used DFDS for the first time in October. Will not be using P&O ever again.

Not used P&O since they sacked all those staff a while back and never will again.

Sorry mate but you won't get me on their boats. People should and could have showed them what they did was wrong. But like normal saving £5 is much more attractive.

Totally agree m8, they absolutely dumped there staff and replaced them with cheap labour, total disgrace. I would not feel safe on one of their boats again and never intend to use them ever in the future.

No P&O for me either, I always sail DFDS from Newhaven to Dieppe. Think it cost me about £140 return just for myself and car last August. Plus, I find it far quicker at the ports than I do at Dover or Calais. Far less messing about.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
