Basically saying that for a generally poor and elderly population DCC do a bloody awful job.

Rumourmill says that Wordsworth has taken a lot of JD's residents, and the poor old staff are rushed of their feet.

There is a perception amongst those elected to serve us that counties such as Dorset and Berks are wealthy. I suppose they believe that 'we' are too lofty to need social care, or are wealthy enough to do without.

VERY generally speaking, Labour tends to invest more in Labour areas, which we appear not to be (another generalization!). I wonder if elder care in Dorset will improve IF the Conservatives come to power? I have my opinion on the subject.

Over to you for yours!
