Shaun Wrong

Shaun Wright has resigned from the Labour party but is refusing to resign from his well-paid, elected by a few, post as South Yorkshire Police and Crime Commissioner.

He had five years in charge of Rotherham's Children's Services during the height of abused children being dismissed by his council and the police and will gangs were grooming and abusing.

Is he right to stick to his guns and refuse to resign because he is being told to?

I'm not sure if PCCs can be sacked. I suspect not as like MPs they are elected.

I really don't get why he cannot see that his position as PCC is completely untenable.

He can but he wants the money.

Apparently he needs to charged and convicted of a crime with a sentence over two years to be removed.

I rather think he will resign before the day is out. I can't see anyone working with him or him being able to do anything in public without being asked about resigning.

His position is totally untenable, lame duck with no credibility in his current position..

eventually he will accept that he has no future in the role as PCC and walk..

The posts are a farce costing us dearly. Their terms are also unduly protected and Id like them all removed and removable easily from their posts. What a stupid decision these jobs were by this government! He should resign and be inter_iewed by a different police force, investigating the wrong doings whilst he held his former job. I loathe him from his current stance, it is insulting to feel he has any local support now.

I suspect he will hold out for as long as he can, in the hope that someone will do something which allows him to sue for a huge sum of money. He's just waiting to feather his nest for an amount like Sharon Shoesmith, who headed Children's Services at Haringey, who got £700k after being sacked for her ineptitude in the Baby P case.

He may well go, but how big will the payout be?

Isn't that the often secretive way Councils and the like operate in such matters?

And he certianly isnt the first person in that position ( ie council care of kids) to be quietly paid off due to scandals and find a lucrative position elsewhere in Child services.

They can't be sacked as they are publicly elected officials.

They can be suspended if indited for a crime that carries more than a 2 year custodial sentence.

So unless he resigns he's there for his elected tenure, nobody can change that unfortunately.

This is pure hell up here In Yorkshire. The only guy in the world who thinks he is up to the Job is Sean Wright from the PM to home Secretary all want him gone plus everyone in South Yorkshire they are at this second trying to fire him but his job is pretymuch bullet proof

His deputy, Tracey Cheetham, has now quit but he is still there.

The argument for local councillors and this layer of government is that it is closer to the people, closer to what is happening locally. As he was a councillor in Rotherham at the time he should, at the very least, have been picking up on the rumours. To claim he knew absolutely nothing when his role was to be the lead councillor for children's services infuriates me.

Now a Rotherham social worker is stating they covered up the figures for years. The police spent their time trying to disprove the claims of the children rather than proving their claims. How wrong is that?

I heard a social worker on R4 yesterday who stated that they fully expect vulnerable girls in care to become abused, prostitutes and sexual pawns for gangs and there is little they can or do about it.

Our most vulnerable children are being let down by every single institution set up to protect them.

"All that mattered was that the statistical targets were met... it got out of control and that's where the cover-up came in" says 'Sarah' on the BBC news piece.
