Is this the price of Failure ? £679.452 ? (UK)?
Sharon Shoesmith was fired after a damning report into the failure of Social Workers to save
17 month old Peter Connely, who died after months of tortures.
This huge payout to the ex Social Worker Chief is unbelievable
She was responsible for the utter shambles in her department, to be awarded such a huge sum
even after it has led to the torture and death of this little boy. (Baby P)
Your observations and this matter, is much appreciated.

You can't blame her for seeking compensation. That's the way the system is set up. It needs to be changed so that it doesn't happen again.

She has her Thirty Pieces of Silver at last. After 60 visits to Baby P who was by then dead, they decided that the Mother had been lying to them. No please..... lying? Well, well, well what a surprise.

As Jack H points out, it was big mouth Ed Balls who got inadvertently got her this money. Perhaps HE should be made to pay!

What I find so frustrating, is that public sector bosses are happy to take big salaries, but unhappy to take accountability for what happens on their watch.
I take on board however what Jack H has said.
So many thanks to you all.

I suspect you only say it was her fault because she was publicly scapegoated - do you really have full working knowledge of what she did?
