But it's still against my principles to sign a contract that has clauses I know to be illegal, and that I would never agree with if they weren't.

No actually in the Eu its pretty much legal - with restrictions.

EU law is fairly common across all states so there will be something like the "Masters and Servants" laws that US and UK law has.
