What can be done about these useless Handbrakes ???

I have replaced the rear disc's and shoes and over the last 18 months the hand brake gets worse and worse....

I have used an air line to get the dust out of them ,I have adjusted them as per the How to and maybe it is OK for a month but then if becomes ineffective and will not hold on any kind of slope. The handbrake is fully up on about 6 clicks

Has any had this before and found a cure ??
