Tory Party's Plans for Retire Health Care
So let me get this straight. The Tory party are suggesting that your care should be self funded until you are left with just £100k of assets but, it's all ok because you won't be charged until you die.
This is nothing but a tax with the highest rate charged to the poorest and the lowest paid by the wealthy. Your £200k flat? We'll have half of that. Genuinely disgusted of Dorset. |

This is a really bad idea and obviously ill thought through. All this and Tories are supposed to be better at managing our economy. Take your fingers out of your ears people and wake up to May's damaging ideas. |
Watch how care home fees rocket after this is introduced .

Social and health care needs either huge tax increases or something along these lines.
Unpalatable but we keep talking about the issues we face with an aging population living much longer than the model ever envisaged. Need to do more than talk however. |

Care home fees for those that have to pay them are higher than they would otherwise be in order to subsidise those who do not pay fees themselves.

Death tax. This has had such a bad reaction from the public that I await the first manifesto U-turn in history prior to an election.
It's amazing how the perspective is that finances are in safer hands with The Tories in charge. Osborne borrowed more than previous Governments have in the history of Parliament and yet it's Labour that can't be trusted with the economy :D |
Ere it already exists. It's currently set at around 23000. Except your house is sold from under you. It doesn't current include domicilkary care only residential. So the new changes would increase the amount but add in home care and money borrowed on the house until death.
It's already there people. |

What I am unclear on is the definition of home care, what the home care is for, who has to pay it and from what age. What I imagined was care at home in lieu of residential care for largely quite elderly people. But, what about, say, a 40 year old wheelchair bound person living alone who cannot manage everyday tasks alone and therefore needs home visits. Is this included? What else is/is not included??? |

It is a brand new death tax that adversely affects a person's family lot after the death of a loved one, and should be seen for what it is, while she is still cutting CT for already rich companies. |

I don't like this policy. The £100k bit is too low and will generate another stream of clients for tax advisers.
