People in top positions need to be accountable

Having listened to the recent revelations in and around the BBC on the Jimmy Savile enquiry, one thing stood out that explains the slow collapse of our country. 

Just as in all the cases of child abuse, medical negligence, abuse of old people in homes, the worsening of our originally wonderful environment, general government incompetence, etc., etc., etc., the people who could and should have done something about them pretend not to know.

Apparently, the fear of losing one’s job or of losing one’s enormous pension are nowadays far more important than mere taxpayers getting the rough end of the stick.
