Mockup packet of sticking plasters titled 'LabourNHSPlan" with the touted feature 'excludes a plan for social care' The graphic is titled 'the most expensive sticking plaster in history.'
Without fixing social care, this NHS plan could be the most expensive sticking plaster in history.
It appears Labour are borrowing from the Conservative playbook - ignoring the social care crisis because it’s just too hard.

Today marks four years since the last edition of Apple Daily - and its founder Jimmy Lai (a British national) is still in a Hong Kong prison.
Great to meet with Reporters Without Borders to receive a special copy they've produced marking the sad anniversary - very timely with today's China audit.
I was on BBC Radio London earlier to talk about the rising danger of Islamophobia and why London institutions urgently need Islamophobia training.
I didn’t expect to get emotional live on air. But this is personal for me and 1.3 million Muslim Londoners. We deserve to feel safe.
Our Plan for UK Industry: Scrap the damaging Jobs Tax. Ditch the Family Farm Tax. Upskill workers across the country. Reduce energy costs for businesses. Negotiate a UK-EU customs union.
If the Government was truly serious about backing British business, they'd scrap their damaging Jobs Tax, stand up for our Farmers and negotiate a bespoke UK-EU customs union.

There’s been a lot of noise about the impact of the Budget on farmers and farming this week. My view is that the Government’s approach gives us the worst of both worlds. Here’s my explanation from BBC Question Time last night.
