In the countries the ships are flagged in, yes.

So it looks as though the crews are still fired but with the question of how big the pay off.

Going to sea seems a much kinder and duller way of life than when I was in the Merchant Navy. I imagine that if a modern day Captain Richardson leveled a 0.455 Mars pistol at a bolshie seaman, it would be a cause for complaint rather than an interesting topic of conversation

P&O has been widely criticised for sacking 800 employees - but were its actions illegal?
