It is quite a shocking report when you think about elderly people in our society,” he said.\n\n“The suggestion that one in three gets substandard care, in this report, that 13-18 per cent are subjected to assaults.”\n aclennell Takes a lot to fix something that was ignored for decades. I'm sure the Liberals will manage to turn it into a gold mine for a Liberal party donation drive and depending... on where you live and vote for a Liberal party rort scheme. aclennell Very strong leadership from Morrison. aclennell Should never have got to that stage.
