Of 800 p80 front pages leads with the sacking of 800 p&0 staff causing a massive problem for british supply chains. as both passenger and freight shipping routes face ten days of disruption. the daily express carries that story as well. it mentions the actions of the captain who walked down his ship to stop security from removing his staff. the telegraph has more details of government ministers ben wallace and priti patel being targeted by hoax calls leading to the war in the ukraine. mrwallace calls leading to the war in the ukraine. mr wallace was asked about potential deployments of british warships to the black sea but he ended the call after becoming suspicious of the person pretending to be ukraine s prime minister. home at last, a beautiful picture on the front of the guardian of nazanin zaghari ratcliffe enjoying the spring sunshine with her husband and
