Using national insurance to fund social care is regressive and unfair | LettersLetters: We should scrap NI and replace it with taxes on income and profit, writes Adrian Darnell, while Janet Briffett believes the poor will end up paying for the well-off Pensioners already pay tax. Do your homework. The judicious management of funds raised from previous NI contributions from the now retired generation would have been acceptable. All governments for the past 50 years have squandered the cash along with other revenue opportunities (Oil, etc). Fail to plan=plan to fail.

Boris Johnson faces 'almighty row' with Tory MPs over NI tax hikeBoris Johnson is facing a mounting Tory backlash over his plan to hike National Insurance to pay for social care reform as he was warned it will cause 'significant damage' to the Conservative Party. Disgrace The amount of 2019 election 'promises' being broken or in the process of being broken is now past the absurd The cons are JOKERS Handing in on a plate to Labour Based on my experience of my company, as a past supplier to UK Government Health Department, it will be a miracle, if Tories do not eventually take UK to US style insurance, destroying overall healthcare & making humans across UK, insecure about health, life & future!
