Quick PCV Valve Question

Having a tinker with my runabout 1.4 Escort, I was checking the pcv valve and it appears to be faulty but I am not sure. As I understand it the valve should be one way but this one doesn't appear to work - it is under spring pressure which prevents it closing so what is the point of it??

I just can't see how it can work and it is confusing me





Cheers,
