P&O Ferries: Employee reaches settlement over unfair dismissal

A former P&O Ferries employee who has reached a settlement with the firm after being unfairly dismissed has spoken to the BBC.

John Lansdown was the only seafarer to take legal action after refusing a redundancy settlement offered by the company.

He was among about 800 staff who lost their jobs without notice in March.

Mr Lansdown told BBC Politics South East his settlement was a "moral victory". P&O Ferries declined to comment.
