It is the bigger picture that we should be worried about.
This is the biggest threat to our jobs and the Ports future that we have ever faced.

With all the information Mr Lewis will be taking with him I'm sure HPH will be a little bit unhappy.

I'm sure many ars*s started to nip up when our big wigs heard this, The POF seems to be keeping rather schtum at the moment probably reeling from the embarrassment of it all. Should be interesting to see who and what he poaches, not that we've got much to loose up top anyway.
