P&O are owned by DP World based in UAE. DP World signed a massive contract to ship Russian goods across Asia and Europe last year. A certain bungling t*t went to the UAE to gain support for the blockade of Russia last week. DP World have lost billions and have to cut costs. Guess who they blame? This is the big problem with todays world - its all financially interconnected and 'acting in good faith' to one country puts you foul of lots of others.

// DP World received more than £4.3m of emergency funding from the government during the pandemic, as part of its efforts to subsidise freight operators. It also received government support to pay more than 1,400 furloughed workers during the pandemic, the Nautilus union said. //

The company is owned by the UAE Government. They were criticised for paying a £270m dividend to shareholders (Royals) at the end of April 2020, while P&O Ferries proposed to sack around 1,100 workers.
