Dame Janet’s Whitewash

One is becoming increasingly tired of these endless inquiries led by elderly but distinguished judges, which find that bad stuff happened but the bosses, those with responsibility, senior management, did not know about it and therefore cannot be blamed. This is rubbish. The bosses, by definition, are responsible whether they knew about the problem, heard about the rumours or whatever. Because that is what senior management is. They should both be blamed and take the blame. To dump it all on line floor management may convince the increasingly discredited establishment and their cosy blame averse culture, but it convinces nobody else.
