DP World have been paid £50m by our government to set up 2 of the charter cities on top of the loans & furlough monies paid to P&O, allowing them to pay out £270m in dividends whilst pleading poverty as a justification for sacking 800 workers.
This is the new world order envisaged by the 1%ers who find democracy, transparency & representation a hindrance to their ability to milk us dry, ably supported by a willing cohort of middle managers who are grateful to get a slightly larger slice of the cake in return for shafting the rest of us...
