Stuff's News item regarding RESTHOMES

Russ from Wigram

I've read the STUFF article on REST HOMES
What a poor state of affairs when our elderly have virtually NO RECOURSE due to the INACTION of our elected POLITITIANS !!
Absolutely abysmal - 5 years more to wait before anything happens ??
30,000 elderly have passed already WITHOUT their complaints being actioned ??
Come on !! Where is the care & empathy we sALL should be showing these people in their latter years ? POLITITIANS GET OFF YOUR HANDS and make this move !
Adern had legislation and gun laws changed and done lickity split over the Christchurch Mosc murders -- 30,000 elderly have passed without their complaints against Rest Homes being actioned !

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
