Social care crisis needs cross party solution says Davey

Описание: Lessons from other countries highlight importance of political consensus to fix chronic funding shortfall.

Liberal Democrat leader Sir Ed Davey has called on the government to seek “a cross-party solution” to the crisis in social care, declaring he is “ready to sit down with ministers and start those talks wherever, whenever.”
His clarion call follows a general election campaign in which social care was barely mentioned, despite the millions of people affected by England’s increasingly threadbare provision for the elderly and disabled.
The Liberal Democrats alone made social care central to their electoral pitch. The lack of a detailed plan from Labour and the Conservatives has highlighted England’s long-standing struggle to solve a problem successfully addressed by a host of comparable nations. Japan, Germany, the Netherlands and Scandinavian countries have all found solutions that have weathered changes of political administration and found broad public support, underlining the shrewdness of a cross-party approach.
