COUNTY councillors should hang their heads in shame for the way they are treating our elderly people.
They go on about not having the money to keep open the care homes for these pensioners who have worked all their lives and now in their hour of need suddenly find they are a burden on society.
They help with their keep, paying what they can and not asking for more than they need.
Yet these same councillors can find money and houses for people who have not contributed anything to the system.
