P&O bosses have been forced to reverse an attempt to pay their new agency workers even less money, a month on from firing 800 workers for cheaper European staff.

P&O Ferries sacked almost 800 employees last month and brought in cheaper agency workers, arguing the move was to help keep the multi-billion business afloat.
