We've been underpaying on health and social care for a long time. However we keep voting for parties that promise tax cuts, its not magic. Either we want a health service and to look after the elderly or not. If we do we need to pay significantly more as costs are going to continue to rise.

Absolutely correct, it's the elderly that keep on abusing the NHS, having their pensions increasing, holding on to property bigger than they need, not putting enough cash away, expecting others to everything for them, living longer than they should, voting out of the EU etc
I think anyone of 55 should be paying for this as they are the ones who will benefit so make them pay for it, remove triple lock and put direct to NHS as I bet that is worth more than 0.7%
