Will abortion conspiracy theorist Emily O'Reilly run for President
Will abortion conspiracy theorist Emily O'Reilly run for President: "What about our nursing homes, our mental institutions, our prisons? We cannot be unaware of the huge problems besetting many of them, drab functionality at best, inhuman squalor at worst. We have blamed an older generation for hiding its own outcasts, yet we continue to do it in this generation, older people shuffled off to at times indifferent institutional care, people with mental or psychiatric problems shuffled off to equally dehumanising places, prisoners most of whom come from the same few square miles of disadvantaged concrete, bunking down in shower rooms for want of adequate space. The words 'subhuman ' and 'degrading' were used or implied frequently in the Ryan report, the very same words have been used in inspection reports in relation to some of our current institutions that care for our old, out mentally ill and our imprisoned. The Minister for Health herself, just a few years ago, described the conditions in one mental institution as beyond her worst nightmare."?CHANGE?
