Well, I took the spelling from the Cambridge English Dictionary which gives both forms. Blame them not me! I don't think the "increased labour costs" argument holds water in the P&O case. Many made redundant were skilled and well-paid. According to press reports their replacements are are on less than £3 an hour.

£1.81 an hour - disgusting. They should be banned from docking at UK ports.

One of the answers to this is never to buy their “ product” and to encourage others to boycott them also

Plus what confidence would you have sailing on a ship crewed by staff on £1.80 an hour?

The reported £1.81p a hour for the 800 workers, who take the job, may benefit themselves.

Why ! When the ships dock in the U/K, the workers than ask for asylum in the U/K has
refugees, saves them the £3,000 , they pay for crossing the channel on unsafe boats.
{Where do they get the money from ?]

ELK, it was reported that the replacement "workers" were already in Minibuses near the docks ready to move in. So they must have been in the UK already.......As immigrants can't work until they get permission to stay here, where the f*uck have they come from to accept £1.81 a hour??
