care costs

LIAR, CORRUPT JOHNSON at it again.

And don’t get me started on the clowns speech yesterday, all to detract from this.

The Tory’s never, ever change their spots. Wake up!

The proposed system is vastly vastly superior than what currently exists or what existed under the last Labour govt.

Perfect, no? But you should be able to consider it rationally without such extreme conclusions

Comparisons with previous Governments become increasingly pointless as the years pass, the longer one party has been in power, the more irrelevant the previous Government becomes. A Tory MP trying to hold the last Labour Government to account in 1996 for a problem of that time would sound ridiculous because their party had been in power for seventeen years and the same applies the other way round when Labour had been in power for twelve years in 2009. After eleven years of the Conservatives in charge, we’re in the same position again - the world has changed a lot since 2010.

I agree really, the world keeps turning, but the proposals represent a sea change, it's entirely positive and transformative for those with less wealth.

The graph shown is fairly. Of course those who have a million in the bank will still be better off after spending the same amount on care than someone with less. You'd have to be a communist to think we should all leave this earth with the exact same sum in the bank.

As stated, these changes are positive and I'm increasingly tired of party political games over everything.
