@ProfTimBale Thanks, Tim. And sorry to read of your family’s circumstances. You’re right that one reason social care is hard to reform is that people don’t think the current system will work against them (often, I suspect, because they don’t know how the current system works). — PolitiTweet.org

@anandMenon1 @ProfTimBale One of the difficulties is conflicting senses of fairness. It’s unfair for someone to lose most of their assets because of dementia. But spending billions on a cap benefits most those who’ve gained from property price inflation - and that doesn’t seem fair, either. — PolitiTweet.org
