that sounds completely unreasonable.

You may not actually have to go to court for an injunction, but
you really should see a solicitor to help. That is really
ridiculous.


Thanks for that, I am minded to put the application together
myself, on what grounds would the injunction be?


I don't practice in the UK, so don't rely on me to be authoritative.
But it seems to me that by suspending you without any compensation
instead of sacking you they are improperly depriving you of any ability
to earn a living, and is unconscionable for that reason. I might ask a
court to determine that the suspension was in fact a constructive
discharge, which would free you up to work for someone else.
