@martin_lea@lostinallypally@larterlia1957@Fiona35352137@thetimes Pensioners today are the richest ever generation, a three bed semi could be bought for around £25000 back in the 80’s, most young people bought properties that’s where the wealth comes from rather than earnings as property values boomed.
@Fiona35352137@martin_lea@lostinallypally@larterlia1957@thetimes With people now living a lot longer and families either unable or not interested in looking after a relative ( don’t want forgetting in the Will mind) the State couldn’t take it on completely sadly.
@lostinallypally@larterlia1957@Fiona35352137@thetimes I find the easiest way to get certain people onto your side of the argument is to say why should Tony Blair or Gary Lineker pay care home fees and lose a lot of their children’s inheritance.
