Today the The Secretary of State, Eric Pickles has put Rotherham Council into Special Measures. Rotherham Borough Council to resign in it's entirety.
The report by Louise Casey is terrible. The council was found to be 'Unfit for purpose'. Police looking into criminal matters.
A culture of sexism, covering up truths, silenced whistle blowers, paid off staff, complete failure of leadership, bullying, suppressing evidence, political correctness, etc. etc.
Thank goodness this awful council is going to get it's just deserts , unlike the poor children it failed.
It is live on parliament freeview 131 and Labour are backing Eric Pickles, well they have no choice to be fair.
I hope other councils are watching with utmost interest!
