One thing I will say about social care is this working in the NHS I see loads of patients come through that need social care packages that cost a fortune.

The peoples families don't want houses sold to fund it fair enough.

And neither do people want to pay more tax to fund it , caller after caller in the election phone ins to LBC said just that.

They were right to tackle social care as lots of people want it but nobody seemingly wants to pay.

A Exit with an agreement not to impose tariffs would be something no other country has negotiated thus far,even Norway and Switzerland whilst not being EU members have to pay into the pot for the EU access they get.
