Lots of debate about the NHS being ‘broken’ but is #socialcare also ‘broken’ as Department of Health and Social Care said earlier this week? It’s a crude word and it depends on what you mean. Here’s a quick thread on some things that may or may not be ‘broken’ about social care.

People who draw on social care will be the real losers if the NI employer rise is not mitigated for support providers. We don’t believe the government wants that to happen. But it must act soon to avoid it.

Boris Johnson using the Channel presidential election coverage to promote his failing book is so cringe. Why give him the platform?! #AmericaDecides
