 It would have been better for the PP to do the research as to whether 
 expressing an opinion is either an offence in its own right or a breach 
 of licence conditions.

 Nothing there about giving interviews and especially not about 
 expressing one's opinion. 
  
 Of course, with the current government and their record so far, it would 
 be perhaps unwise to look too far forward, but it is hard to imagine 
 Parliament ever legislating to prevent the expression of one's 
 honestly-held opinion.
