the city council since 2004 (when it came under Tory-Lib control) have shut down *every* residential care home in social services:
elderly people, disabled people, young people (kids) etc….
and so the Plan (“Big City Plan” maybe – probably you should check it out!) is that the city council provides NO SERVICES!! which is what the 2004 Tory-Libs told us: they want “a commissioning-only Authority”
where everything is ‘bought in’ from the private sector.
that is what has happened, and is happening still under Labour!
the unions have to fight, and/or the local and other people have to get organised! this meeting is a great opportunity!
