Another day, another tale of gross incompetence:

We can be sure Sarah-Jane Marsh will neither resign over this matter, nor be fired. In 2002 she was a graduate trainee, and just seven years later she was appointed the chief executive of Birmingham Children’s Hospital, on a salary of £155,000 p.a. Were there really no more experienced and better-qualified candidates for such a senior role? It beggars belief.
