Social care deserves a free vote. Over 300 MPs voted against protections for care providersβ€”bound by party orders, not independent judgment.

When the NI Bill returns, MPs must be free to vote on its real-world impact. Demand a free vote now!

❌ The NI hike is driving providers to collapse.
❌ Carers are leaving because pay doesn’t reflect their work.
❌ Vulnerable people are waiting for care that can’t be funded.

πŸ’₯ In just 1 hour, we take action. Join the Social Media Day of Action at 8 AM to demand fair funding.
