My Wife has been working in the care industry for 6 months - care in this country is an absolute shambles. An army of min wage angels going above and beyond every day for cut-throat, profiteering private sector providers or almost bankrupt councils...

Tories would cut vital social care services even more, new study finds

Analysis by the Institute for Fiscal Studies found that even if council tax goes up by 4%, demand for services will outstrip available cash if the Tories win the election
