Election day reporting restrictions?

I thought the law was clear that on election day any political or campaign issues (or anything that could be reasonably considered to be related to such issues) are not allowed to be reported? The idea is that nothing should be able to influence people's decision on the actual day of voting.

I'm sure El Reg have a crack team of fellow vultures (aka lawyers) on standby, but even so this seems to be skating a bit close to the wind publishing this article today of all days.
