Finally! It's unconscionable what's been done. Not just care homes, the whole impact of closing down all support systems.

Yes it is shocking, so glad our care home didn't have any covid cases.

Shocked - but not surprised - it’s not leading news. Still, I suppose pictures of empty toilet roll shelves and photogenic drunk toying women at 9.55pm is more newsworthy

toying?? - don’t know what that was supposed to be
