I thought the thinking was that the Conservatives couldn't lose this election no matter what they did.

"Election 'a question of trust' says Theresa May as she defends care costs cap U-turn"

She's in real trouble, then.

Bloke on the radio said that any one born today or below the age of 4 , may well have a life expectancy 100 .

social care is going to be a massive problem to society

stick a TV camera in every ones face & ask them would u pay more in tax to pay for it & most or every one will say yes

now get em to vote for it

yes, it's funny that conservative voters are predominantly older people, who will find themselves voting for cuts in pensioner benefits, and a dementia tax that will (probably) get a cap on it now, but nobody knows what it will be.

Perhaps they will buy shares in the private companies that swoop on Jeremy C Hunt's broken-down and broken-up NHS. Lots of money in the "care" trade.
