Oh look, Labour aren't doing another thing. This new report won't be due until 2028, so I guess people affected now can just be patient then?

Britain has a social care crisis. Here’s how Labour plans to fix it
Wes Streeting

He hasn't a clue how to fix it.

The only thing you can say in his defence is that nobody else has either.

Previous reviews on different aspects of social care, including Andrew Dilnot’s work on care costs, will be fed into the commission. It’s fair to say that it won’t be starting from scratch.

Just keep kicking the can down the road Wes.

Musk is insane and that is becoming ever more obvious.

Even if the government does absolutely nothing, there must be a real chance going forward that his largesse will lose more votes than win them.

So, Instagram is about to become completely unusable. These profiles can't be blocked or reported.

Though it should be added to the above post that Elon Musk has clearly libelled Jess Phillips, and that at least should indeed have consequences.

Labour have seemed allergic to doing anything so far, I don't see why that will change with regards to Musk.

I see that Marco Longhi has joined Reform.

Turning Point UK president?
Common Sense Group?
Nasty comments about his opponent's surname during the election?

A prefect fit...

Don'r forget his classy "my opponent is Indian" appeal to local Muslim voters before the last GE. Yes, a real catch for Reform - again!

Are they just going to spend the full 5 years constantly resetting? Might get it right at some point.

Nobody talks about "resets" except the media.
