I feel for the Post Office victims but there are so many other injustices that don't get much airtime, eg #socialcare #pensions #ExcludedUK et al. Why should people have to sell their house to pay for care when they've paid into a rotten system for decades.
We would like to say a very well done to Zoe, who has received her certificate for passing her NVQ 3.

@Labour's challenge by robert shrimsley Financial Times. #SocialCare won't be solved by pay alone Rachel Reeves it needs funding. My tip: abolish NICees; add 7% onto Basic Rate Tax; raises ยฃ14bn from economic inactive/ rich pensioners (me) to fund it. Cuts 1% off 27% tax on workers.
You should be as worried about the #NHS #SocialCare #Privatisation of public assets under Labour as you are the Tories and the Lib Demโs.
Only The Green Partyโฉ will ensure the INVESTMENT in public services is paid for by those who can more than afford it.

Yes Keir Starmer. What will you do to 'serve' the the millions of family carers who've had to give up work to care for the sick & disabled? Spineless Labour removed all reference to #SocialCare reform in its manifesto, fearful the Tories would use it as a stick to beat them.

In terms of #socialcare do we still require building based 30, 40, 70+ accommodation ( aka beds).
If yes, why?
If not, what?

Celebrating excellence in #socialcare
#LDAwards2024 #ThankYouSocialCare
Imagine being able to thank our PM for fighting for #socialcare . Or any PM over the last thirty years.
I've just been canvassed on the doorstep by a Tory party member
If nothing else, I stopped him bothering anyone else for 15 mins
But I also opened my front door to show him the reality of cuts to local council budgets & the impact of not receiving needed #socialcare support
