Andrew Dilnot is angry (rightly) about the inability of our leaders to address the massive & ongoing problem of how to organise & pay for .

'There’s no discussion of the overall level of funding that is needed for social care, no serious addressing of the desperate state that the existing means-testing system is in. To go forward to a general election without that being a significant part of our national discussion just seems irresponsible on all sides'!

markfoden,

@ChrisMayLA6 This is about a government supported citizens’s assembly on social care run in 2019 in the UK

One of its key recommendations (p21) was “To look beyond party politics”

Citizens Assemblies can be a get out of jail free card for politicians (eg abortion in Ireland)

We should be experimenting with them more and paying more attention to their conclusions
