P&O suspends ferries as it fires ‘all UK crew’ and replaces them with foreign labor (archive.ph)

Mark Dickinson, general secretary of the Nautilus International union, which represents seafarers, said: “The news that P&O Ferries is sacking the crew across its entire UK fleet is a betrayal of British workers. It is nothing short of scandalous given that this Dubai-owned company received millions of pounds of British taxpayers’ money during the pandemic.

A union pricing it's labor out of the market, a company replacing it's workforce with foreign labor, a government that bailed them out to rescue them from a crisis which they created themselves, I don't know which side I like less.

It's definitely the company for me. Demographic replacement isn't easy to reverse. All that other stuff is much easier to fix.

Those who hire replacement migrants get a free game of Minecraft.

Why? It's a direct result of the unions.

No, it's a direct result of corporate greed and incompetence. If you can't maintain a profitable company without migrants, then go out of business and get replaced with someone who can. They didn't replace the workers with locals outside of the union.

Look what happened to the Hostess Twinkie factory.

I don't see any mention of migrant labor in their.

A one bedroom condo is now selling for 650k in the building I live in...

Overpriced electricians aren't going to do that. Have you seen how many immigrants Canada is taking in? We get the same BS talks in the US about their being a "housing crisis." How can there be a housing crisis with a birth rate below replacement levels? Again, it's immigration driving the cost.

Yup. Once your government decides to prioritize foreigners over native citizens, you either replace your government or end up another third world shithole.

Today’s politicians would have already been hanging from lampposts a hundred years ago.

I don't know why you guys are arguing past one another. It's possible that unions and foreign laborers are both bad. Used to be the unions were against unfettered immigration because they are competing interests, both of which can harm the economy in different ways.

I wouldn't say we are arguing past each other. There is a huge contradiction between being some sort of conservative or right-winger and stanning corporations. It needs to be explored or else right-wing movements will just be eternal simps for our corporate enemies. It's actually a huge problem on the so-called right, perhaps its biggest problem, even.

child slave force

but there is a law against it, except where there isn't, and there they do do it, so I'm unclear on what point what made here

-Corporate greed? If it's legally an option why wouldn't a business do it? It's not a charity. Don't want temp workers taking jobs? That's a government legislation issue.

I never said they wouldn't be tempted to do it. Why do you think I suggested harsh penalties for doing so. I didn't realize not wanting to flood your country with legally retarded migrants was so controversial around here. LOL

-The Hostess factories closed because of union greed. But I guess that type of greed is ok?

It is less damaging. Unions can't implement demographic replacement. You do realize that the unionization rate has fallen in Canada since the 1980s, right? It's also fallen a lot in the US, and as I said, the US has a similar problem with high housing costs, especially in and around cities.

I don't say this to insult you, but your corporate greed finger pointing makes you sound like a clueless Marxist.

Marxism is when you oppose demographic replacement. LOL

Have you ever worked a trade and have experience with unions?

Nope, but I have lots of experience living in a country in the advanced stages of demographic replacement.

I never said unions can't contribute to the problem. They certainly can. As I said, unionization rates are in decline. It makes no sense to claim they are driving immigration and recent housing cost increases.

The ferry operator said it had suspended all journeys before a “major company announcement”, adding: “ To facilitate this announcement all our vessels have been asked to discharge their passengers and cargo and stand by for further instructions.

Travellers and businesses face severe disruption at British ports after the leading operator of ferries between Dover and Calais suspended all its services “for the next few days”.

P&O Ferries has fired all 800 of its seafaring crew with immediate effect and will use cheaper agency workers to staff its ships.

Former employees said they were told they had lost their jobs via a pre-recorded video message.

Yup, sounds like a company run by shitlibs, alright.
