John McDonnell will unveil the plans in his conference speech
Labour is also pledging to halt the use of zero-hour contracts in the care sector, ensuring carers are paid a real living wage and including for travel time, as well as ending 15-minute care visits. "It is vital that social care is a universally-available public service which provides dignity, security and compassionate care.Listen to"Talks and Speakers | Stephen Barclay, Harriet Harman & Chuka Umunna" on Spreaker.
Responding to Labour's proposals, Caroline Dinenage, minister for care, said:"Thanks to our responsible management of the economy, this Conservative government is able to invest in our vital public services.
johnmcdonnellMP It’s incredible how they intend spending all this money that we haven’t got, they’re gonna make this country bankrupt in the week. This is the person making all these promises and yet he’s not even see your bank account statement of the country, what an idiot
johnmcdonnellMP And how will that go down with his remoaner/ momentum pals?
johnmcdonnellMP Looking after himself again then .....
Not forgetting all elderly people entitled for a free Thomas Cook holiday as well
Taxes will rise,unless they have a secret stash.
LabourDarren and don't start knocking it at Sky News! Savings limit is 'At the moment, those with savings of more than £14,250 have to contribute to the cost of home or residential help' yet an average funeral bill now is £6000. No one wants to live their last years in poverty....
Labour cranking up those promises now...menopausal women,free prescriptions....now free elderly care...that think tank really trying hard tiger those votes....yet still none promising to look after homeless ex servicemen/women. ...
Just think about this - Abbott will be in charge of the purse strings - very scary, where is all this money going to come from, they’re the Communist Party
Great idea,but where does the money come from?
It’s Labour, everything will be free! Until it isn’t.
Of course you would ! So let’s aim at students , prescriptions , remain , leave anyone for votes but you can’t deliver no one trust you .
22% of the population over 60. How are we going to pay for it?
Wow larger taxes for those of us who work/pensions he will be dropping all the tax thresholds and increasing how much we pay as this money has to come from somewhere.
Who’s paying for that let’s ask abbot 😂😂😂😂
Where’s the money coming from? Corbyns ass? Or hogwarts hat?
All the young looney lefties will fall for this, what happened to his no University fees for all......
Absolutely bollocks and free prescription wow money tree must be in full bloom in far away fairy land
They should make all manifesto promises legally binding and if they don’t follow thru they can be grounds for removal from power. Would stop all this promising the world just to get votes
Nice idea but Only possible if they fleece our pockets and take away everybody’s wealth (something these communists are planning anyway).
Here we go again. Promising the earth spending all the money labour government always leave the country potless Tory’s always cut and save become unpopular and labour get in and repeat and repeat. DrainTheSwamp
Any government could do this & sort out the POLICE & NHS if they stopped paying this farce every year !!
6 billion wouldn’t cover a cup of tea and a biscuit each, Get real.
Free😂😂😂😂😂😂 Pull the other one you muppets.
Still never get my vote
Did somebody say free unicorns 😏
Because the magic money tree 🌲
Lol, where's all the money coming from when all the wealthy move abroad?
redsarah99 Wait, let me get this straight. Instead of relieving elderly people with care needs, of the money they worked all of their lives for, while paying into NI and taxes, we show them some care and respect instead, while creating steady fair pay work? Hmmmm. Thanks Labour, you rock!
They'll still vote tory the mail told them to
And the moon is made of cheese
Wow free everything for everybody under the magical wonderful labour party! Rainbows and unicorns all round! And they are going to make it rain glitter and give away free cars that run on water!
sounds like our socialist over here (🇺🇸), free shit for all!!! oh how are we gonna pay for it tax the living hell outta the working middle class of course!!! take it easy lazy jobless lay abouts we got covered 👍😉
It’s all free! N wonder they are queuing up at Calais to come over 🤬
Ah, like in Scotland, where prescriptions are also free. Policies scottishlabour didn’t introduce when in power (many years ago now) and still oppose here.
As if Labour really care for the older person. Hypocrites
That kind of wealth has to be created in the first place then maintained at that level. I wonder who will do that and how
Sounds great the only problem I don't trust labour to deliver on anything they say anymore
If labour comes to power ,stop working immediately and pretend you are halt ,lame or insane and everything will be free !
About freaking time!!!!!
Also where are they going to get all these new carers from unless they suddenly start paying them a decent wage. Agencies can’t even get enough people to work as carers at the moment
That is too small amount of money. It should be ≈ 20 bn at least. 6:25:08 Mon, September 23, 2019
As much as I would like that to be true it’s just not affordable
All the decent Carers have been deported.
Shake that tree Jezzer, shake that tree.
Does anyone actually believe this shit apart from the swivel eyed racists in the conference hall? The free stuff thing is long gone
Yeah, I bet they will. They'll open the flood gates to non-english speaking countries and fill the UK with people with fake qualifications who aren't fit to care for the elderly.
6 billion and free in the same sentence. That’s impressive.
