It's been only days since the aged care royal commission’s report was handed down, but 1RossGittins is already pessimistic about its ability to prompt real change in the industry. | OPINION

Can you imagine how keen Morrison would be to have the tables turned in the coming election? He’d be the one seeking support for what Labor would quickly label his “retirement tax”.

The report found that the root cause of the crappy treatment of people in age care was the inadequate number, training and pathetic pay of aged care workers . Properly done, almost all the increased cost of aged care would end up in the hands of these women.
