One of our readers raised a question arising out of the previous post on employment blacklists.
According to this report on the BBC website, Steve Acheson (who was on the blacklist) was the subject of an unsuccessful attempt by his former employer to obtain an injunction to prevent him from protesting against his dismissal. Apparently the application was made under anti-terrorism legislation. Our reader asks if we can throw any light on the legal basis for the application.
Unfortunately the answer is no; it appears that there is no report of the case online in any of the usual places. The best I can find is this item from the website of Mr. Acheson’s solicitors.
