ISSUES: Workplace politics, dilemma and unethical practices

Hi everyone

There are a couple of queries, not sure if I would justify what I mean to but will try:

1. There are hell lot of unethical practice at the place I currently work but since its a set up where all top set of people are inter connected whether blood relations or extended families and I, in my capacity was asked a couple of times to do something which was not by books / policies and due to that frustration I have recently resigned. To be honest, I don't want to raise these issues as I know nothing will happen. DID I DO THE RIGHT THING?

2. I was called for a discussion after resigning in which I was actually forced to get de-motivated since these leadership team said that if I resign so I can completely focus on my  CIPD learning, I wont get the right job later for which I am doing all this(just to give a brief - in my last capacity I was at Recruitment Mange with a big company but not in UK) but due to a gap of 5 years due to childcare I had to join as Administrator. IS THIS TRUE THAT I WONT GET A JOB WITHOUT HAVING PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE IN THIS COUNTRY? DO COMPANINES NOT BOTHER TO LOOK AT OVERALL EXPERIENCE ESPECIALLY IF IT IS RECRUITMENT HR JOB?

I really all your advice because the above second point was unfortunately said by a qualified MCIPD person. TBH, I belief in myself and my calibre but still just want to understand is this something true about UK market?

Thank you to each on of you who will take time to solve my query.
