@DaddyCoffee73 Do you know what it was like to try and find a job in the early 1980s? Mass unemployment, people with no hope and little prospect of finding a job. Doesn’t sound like entitled to me

[Garjo @Garjo83667433]

@alexwickham @BethRigby It also casts doubt on his claim about social contract I.e give up triple lock and you will receive free social care. Looks like triple lock is going but what about social care?

[Garjo @Garjo83667433]

@Hepworthclare I didn’t think the proposal for ‘free’ social care applied to non-pensioners

[Garjo @Garjo83667433]

@StevenTommo @GMB They won’t be free, read the follow up from the Govt

[Garjo @Garjo83667433]

@poppycurley @JasonGroves1 Thanks

[Garjo @Garjo83667433]

@jeffbarrow81 You will still have to sell your house under Burnhams proposal, the residential (accommodation) costs will not be free

[Garjo @Garjo83667433]

@raefil Nothing on defence…

[Garjo @Garjo83667433]

@LexyTopping But did he promised free personal care for all?

[Garjo @Garjo83667433]

@DanJarvisMBE Best speech in a generation? Let’s face it you’ve not got much to compare it with

[Garjo @Garjo83667433]

@EstherMcVey1 Might be worth mentioning did he actually commit to free personal care for all?

[Garjo @Garjo83667433]

@DanCardenMP @andyburnham Yes bold … stack the pensioners first

[Garjo @Garjo83667433]

@lukejcr But will everyone receive free personal care?

[Garjo @Garjo83667433]

@JohnDCaudwell Think you need to clarify will it be a free care service for everyone?

[Garjo @Garjo83667433]

@PJTheEconomist But did he commit to free social care for all? I don’t think so

[Garjo @Garjo83667433]

@PippaCrerar Can you clarify will personal care be free? I thought he mentioned only free to people receiving basic state pension who will?

[Garjo @Garjo83667433]

@soniasodha Could you tell us where was the commitment to free care?

[Garjo @Garjo83667433]

@HelenMiller_IFS But people will still pay for care, it won’t be free for everyone

[Garjo @Garjo83667433]

@MikeJam94154190 @SEANLWOODCOCK Looks like it won’t be free care, Burnham refers to only those on basic pension who will not pay. In effect care will still be means tested.

[Garjo @Garjo83667433]

@Edwina_Currie Anyone with savings over £23 k pays for care, scrap the means test for care at the expense of the poorest pensioners doesn’t seem fair to me
