From what I understand in Wales the cap is £50k, any assets over £50k can be used to pay for care. I’m not 100% sure on this though and happy to be proved wrong. | | | |

My mum in law passed notvthat long ago
She had to sell the family home of 50 yrs to pay for “ care” ,which was abysmal
She died with just over 25 grand left ,priceedscofvthechouse
Labour sees these people as somehow “wealthy”
Turns my stomach
I am seething
We are ok but many many will really be hit hard .. Labour follow you to the grave
Not surprised
I suspected Reeves would do this as I did the “ justice” secretary,releasing prisoners en Massie and lowering the 50% sentence to be served
We’ve voted for this | |

Yes my Dad funded his own care, total bill was £600,000. He had to sell everything including his home and had about £50K at the end, indirect taxation of someone who worked for 45 years running his own business, paid a lot of tax and never claimed a penny in benefits. | |

Yes always employed at least two people, treated them well and generally did his bit. As he said " I'm being taxed to death ". | |

This business with the care home fees really annoys me. Previous governments have kicked this can down the road and no one has grasped the nettle. The proposed cap is just that, it’s a proposal and the Conservatives did nothing to protect people and neither did Labour before them.
People have saved their hard earned for a better life for themselves and for their kids afterwards and the greedy care home shysters are ripping them off. | | | |

My Dad paid £1000 a week or so for 24 hour nursing care. When you consider the costs of running a care home, wages for care staff and nursing staff, heating, business rates and taxes it doesn't seem to be too wide of the mark. | |
