WE BET HENSHAW GOT HIS BONUS....

The CSA has been criticised by parents
Staff at the failed Child Support Agency were paid £25m in bonuses over five years, government figures reveal.

In 2006, when the government announced the CSA would be replaced, £4m was paid out in bonuses, it was revealed in a written Parliamentary answer.

The CSA is being abolished after failing to collect £3.5bn of child maintenance payments.

For the Tories, Philip Hammond said it would come as a shock to the 1.4m families using the CSA.

I'd certainly like to give him a bonus

Maybe they could set up a new collection agency?
Main purpose to collect the £25 Million the fat cats that were running the CSA have stolen from the tax payer?

David Henshaw (1843 - 1844): Secretary of the Navy

David Henshaw was born in 1791 in Leicester, Massachusetts. After serving as an apprentice to a Boston pharmacist, Henshaw studied the sciences, learned several languages, and, in 1814, bought into the pharmacy where he had worked.

During the 1820s, Henshaw turned his attention to politics, founding a Democratic publication -- the Boston Statesman -- in 1821 and becoming a member of the Massachusetts State Senate in 1826. Henshaw then tried to run for the United States Congress in 1828 but was defeated. Two years later, President Andrew Jackson appointed him collector of customs duties in Boston, but even Jackson’s favor could not prevent Henshaw from being wiped out by the Panic of 1837.

Siding with President John Tyler in 1841, the President rewarded Henshaw’s loyalty by naming him secretary of the Navy in July 1843. Because Congress was not in session to approve the appointment, Henshaw became the acting secretary. Once Congress returned, however, the members refused to approve Henshaw’s nomination because of their opposition to the Tyler administration. By January 1844, Henshaw had returned to Massachusetts and had become a Democratic Party leader. David Henshaw died in 1852.
