The woman whose staff failed Baby P was so intent on clinging to her £133,000-a-year job that she asked the watchdog to praise her failing department.
Why have we lost decency in public life? Instead of clinging on, she should have followed the honest course and resigned. Since this new labour age begun, honesty in public life and services, has disappeared.
Some have said that Sharon shoesmith couldn't possibly know all the case files. Bollocks, she should at least have been getting a summary. this wasn't two isolated cases.
Previously unpublished details of Ofsted's findings were put before the High Court yesterday as Mrs Shoesmith continued her attempt to overturn her sacking and win a compensation payout.
The report painted a devastating picture of the scale of the failure within children's services at Haringey, North London.
Inspectors cited 'glaringly serious' problems at the Labour-run council which had already failed to save eight-year-old torture victim Victoria Climbie.
They concluded up to 15 other vulnerable children could have been left at risk during Mrs Shoesmith's tenure.
