P&O Ferries furloughed 1400 of its staff during the pandemic, costing the taxpayer £10m.
They also asked us for a £150m bailout.
Its parent company then paid out £250m to shareholders.
Now pandemic's over, they're sacking the British staff we supported.

@philAllottPFCC Do you really believe that resisting arrest would have stopped him from abducting & murdering her? Waken yourself up to the realities of violence against women. We don’t have time to wait for people in charge to get it, resign & let someone who does understand fill your position.
@JoolzPedals The reaction of the pedestrian saddens me too. ‘Something coming that should in theory give way to me, oh I better get out of the way!’. It’s the aggressive car culture percolating onto shared paths 😞. (P.S. I know you were aiming to give way to her).
@BBCScotlandNews eh every heard of Susie Wolf? If you stop overlooking women’s achievement then we can stop ‘pioneering’ and just become the norm. #lazy journalism

@iamjdudge @Edinburgh_CC A few of us did. The grit bin has now been empty since Sat & won’t be refilled ‘til at least Wed. We’re lucky to have that grit bin. Last time we had one for whole street, now we have 3 but not nearly enough for this year’s conds. Most of the street has not been cleared at all.
@Lollercake @kim_harding@edinhelp All the flood barriers were up this morning as the river was almost touching the underside of the bridge and it was still tipping down. What was the arrangement with the ramp to the side? Was it also shut?
Among all 65-75 year olds, median pension wealth for men is £164,700 and for women it is £17,300. Unpaid work that women do impacts their ability to work and save money. We need to create an economy that works for everyone. #16Days#CaringEconomyNow https://t.co/3cDRiSJO5s
