    Just watched the Parliamentary statement. The Minister delivering the statement looked fairly shocked to be fair - and was clearly disgusted. However, not much at all on detail. I'm not sure Government gets it yet, but they are going to have to go nuclear with this - stopping P&O operating however they can manage that. It just won't stand - British workers sacked for cheaper foreign ones is about as bad as it gets politically.

    Some interesting points did arise:

    1. Government first found out about this last night
    2. DP World are going to run two of the UK's freeports (whatever they are), and big pressure to review those awards now.
    3. Literally every MP to speak expects the Government to stop this happening.
    4. Linked to 3, Minister was given the benefit of the doubt by everyone - but clearly going to have to work fast to get on top of detail about what government can do to respond robustly.
