@Jenny_1884 Lots of council owned homes being sold,
If the state could provide the same care for less they would, but they can’t so they are now stopping.
Care is 60-70% staff costs,
@Ewan_Valentine @PolitlcsUK@AnushkaAsthana Dividends is paid from post tax profit, for a millionaire CT and Dividends is lower take home pay than PAYE would be.
@el_drapo similar in care homes, we’ve made redundant around 160 hours a week worth of non care jobs, this will have net effect of making the same amount of money next year as last, so the NI bill for us won’t increase, the corporation tax will be the same, and 4 FTE are no longer PAYE
@theintercoolerx@David__Twohig It was a billion euros 15 years ago, unless the cost of developing a car has come down significantly since then in real terms, it’s a lot more now.
@AutoPap Can you not just take the Volvo deal, and refi immediately once you have possession of the car?
I’ve done this a couple of times, but not for a few years.
@GyllKing @Decorator_UK How come council owned homes take a higher fee per client than private owned care homes for council funded clients?
It’s because they can’t provide the service as efficiently as private enterprise
@GyllKing@sneezy_joe@NinkyMama You are aware that care homes employ more than just care staff? For your £8200, £5k will go to care staff, kitchen staff, house keeping and laundry, maintenance staff and then management.
I’m surprised London average fees aren’t higher tbh with London land values.
@PaulDunnSims@drjanetownson@NHSEngland Mad isn’t it, they acknowledge the issue, but won’t engage,
We have over 100 beds available to LA, yet I’ll do what I can to avoid taking NHS funded clients, yet nobody from the NHS will ask me why.
