Baby P: The public sector protects its own
Does anyone lose their job in the public sector nowadays for gross incompetence without receiving a big fat cheque to ease their departure?
Three senior staff at Haringey social services, including the director Sharon Shoesmith, have been relieved of their duties after the report into the death of Baby P.
There could hardly have been a more damning verdict on the way they had conducted themselves and failed to do the job for which they were very well paid.
