More care industry abuse.

10 years after Winterborne view [1] we now have another atrocity, of patients in a mental health unit have been a abused [2]. With a CQC report on another facility in 2020 [3]

The UK conservative government have been in power since 2010, so there is no blaming others.

However the ring leader of the Winterborne view scandal got a whole TWO years in prison [4], not only insulting but hardly going to deter others.

  1. Winterborne view, 2012 4 Winterbourne View: Care workers jailed for abuse
  2. 'Toxic culture' of abuse at mental health hospital revealed by BBC secret filming, 2022
  3. CQC report: Care of people with learning disabilities 'inhumane'

[1] has links to further examples

All this under a CONSERVATIVE government and they can't blame anyone else.
