This subject verges on politics so is probably not appropriate here.
What a sad story. And for once something Gilligan messed up wasn't a comedy.

anyhue that case treads on British politics, so should be dropped

We have whistleblower protection laws. You can't be fired for blowing the whistle. Of course that doesn't mean that your life can't be made hell by your employer until you quit.
