As I've repeatedly said, the plan fixes nothing. Care and accommodation go hand in hand.
This is just a Boris vanity project that dips into our pockets. If he's going to dip into our pockets, then it should at least solve the problem.
That Javid twit said this morning on LBC that we are still one of the lowest taxed countries in Europe. Big deal - we are also among the lowest state pensions. This is because governments, concerned only with staying in power, have neglected the necessaries - which are to look after everyone throughout their lives, of course having regard to people's ability to pay but without robbing them of their homes.
