@ MaryCath - hence the title of the thread - expedience is often the preferred route when pressure is being applied along the lines that I have seen over the last few days from both the social media side and the authorities side - whilst it maybe a naive perspective, I would have had more respect for Mr Campbell if he had stood by one of his senior staff.......but as you say and in his defence, the investigation may have backed him into an indefensible corner.

In regards to the "Golden good bye" - I do hope that you are right.
