| I doubt these 'gagging clauses' are enforcable, as I'm sure there is a piece of legislation called the 'protected disclosures act' or something to protect people who expose corruption and incompetence. I agree. If they were enforcable surely it would be effectively saying: "We know this is a wrongf... |
