"Governments should be speaking out for us, but, if they're not going to do it, we've got to do it for ourselves." Fighting talk from Rosemary Watson, Peterborough delegate to the first European Parliament of Senior Citizens. Despite very different provision for the elderly across Europe, prejudice remains universal. Reme Kwant, a 74-year-old from Utrecht, says Holland's high standards of care are no compensation for social isolation. And Lisbon delegate Emilia de Jesus Almeida reveals Portugal's failing family support and inadequate state aid.
