As Chx, Philip Hammond managed to fund the £20 bn rise in the NHS annual budget, which I negotiated with him in 2018, without raising taxes. But given post-pandemic public finances £7+ bn is is likely to be too much for any Chancellor to find down the back of a Treasury sofa. — PolitiTweet.org

Let's take as starting point the HSC report which said the sector needs min £7 bn annual raise in its budget over 4-5 years. This covers a cap, demographic changes and increases in the national living wage but not a big expansion of quality or eligibility https://t.co/isSxcdtBCK — PolitiTweet.org

One option is uncapping the council tax social care precept. Currently capped at 2% annual rise, it’s been less unpopular than feared (I hardly recall any constituency letters & colleagues generally agree). But soaring council tax bills to pay for soc care would change that. — PolitiTweet.org
