Dame_Ann_Average posted:in simple terms...the dementia tax
Having just watched the Andrew Marr show and seen this debated by both sides, I do find it quite worrying, especially as someone who has experienced dementia first hand.
I am assuming that this does not affect the super rich who do not use the NHS. For example The Queen. Her family would be left her entire wealth.
I was also totally unconvinced by the argument put over by the Tory rep when it comes to winter fuel allowance. How he thinks a post election consultation with the elderly will ever result in policy in their favour is beyond me.
