Meaningful Wednesday
Another harrowing story but so important that these are heard. We must never let these bastards off the hook. Too many apologists out there, people are so scared of facing up to the reality of what happened and is still happening! All in denial, bloody stupid cunts!
Glad I’m part of this group that won’t take all the bullshit ❤️
My heart goes out to Lynne and her family. Why are they called 'care homes '? Because there have been so many heartbreaking stories where they obviously don't care about the residents. All they care about are themselves. Just like the fucking teaching profession. They all threw our elderly citizens and our children and young people well and truly under the bus. I have my well used phrase which suits occasions such as these and that is' ' the fucking bastards!' I hate them all for what they have done. How can they treat people this way? Not only Lynne's mum, but Lynne and all her family. Absolutely disgusting! They will get their comeuppance, just like Esther fucking Rantzen. I'm sorry, but what astounds me about Lynne's experience is that if that was me as a care assistant, I'd be feeling so empathetic towards the family and think about how I'd want my mum to be treated. Not a cold, don't give a shit attitude. They should be utterly ashamed of the way Lynne and her family were treated, but they won't because they believe all the fucking bullshit and propaganda...even now...three years on! It makes me so angry.
Maybe you should do a similar wall to name and shame all the 'care' homes , schools, colleges, work places etc that were complicit in the shit show, so everyone can see them for what they are, appalling, selfish bastards who were scared of a cold!
Sending love to Lynne and her family and thanks Abi for today's podcast. You give us all a lifeline to tell our stories and that means the world 🥰xx
