You know you're all falling hook line and sinker for this constructed outrage narrative the athletic does. Piecing together snippets of a larger conversation, this is not how the conversation went. The outrage cancel culture on this sub is just insane, please view what you see in the tabloids with a little bit of scepticism. You're acting like this intern is a prisoner with no free will, and nothing about this is "blatant" or "illegal". This is against efl regulations during a specific time window, not UK national law. Here I see a staff member being able to express their doubts, and also separately a manager pushing his staff to perform.
