30% potential cuts to local government. Or there abouts.
According to this evenings Panaroma - there appeared a not-so-subliminal suggestion that we should rouse the sleeping giant that is the electorat to save libraries, leisure centres and Community centres.
No great mention as to care for the elderely, mental health services, Childcare or social services in general.
Stats created by the government inform us that if population demographics maitain the same pattern by 2029 the largest percentage of the population will be over 65's.
Potentially being informally cared for by young carers.
On a completely unrelated note - this morning news informs us that 1 in 4 adults is being diagnosed with some form of mental distress.
There's no news like bad news.
Could the last person to leave England - please turn the energy saving lightbulb powered (thats sourced locally) light off. Assuming that your not bed bound. And that your mobile. And that your not trapped in your own urine soaked chair as your local authority can't afford to maitain care for you at home. And your carer hasn't subsequently fucked off back home to Poland where they can continue their former career as a GP.
Who cares.
