Happy end for P&O Ferries, seems like they were right and their staff cost them potential
profits of almost 1 million quid per person. God bless Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem.

The Guardian burying the lede somewhat

the bulk of revenues and profits come from other divisions. It operates ports in 78 countries on six continents including London Gateway and Southampton

Obvs not going to defend p&o's actions, but yeah they're not really connected. Except possibly if this P&O is reflective of their overall business practices. But that's not discussed.

I guess the idea is that they had the capacity to continue to support a loss making business.
