Grant Shapps

A P&O ferry travelling from Scotland to Northern Ireland regained power after spending hours adrift in the Irish Sea on Tuesday.

The European Causeway, which can carry up to 410 passengers, later docked at Larne Harbour.

It left Cairnryan at about 12:00 BST and was due to arrive at Larne Harbour at 14:00 but got into trouble at 13:30.
 P&O said the incident was caused by a mechanical issue that had been resolved and a full inspection would take place when it docks in Larne.
