Andy Burnham on the problem of social care:
'Whatever political capital I have, I will put into fixing broken social care & I would not want to leave office without having brought in the substantial change...
I can’t put a timeline on it right here, right now. If we don’t do it, the NHS will collapse under the weight of trying to care for people who’ve not really needed to end up in the NHS system'!
Its a pretty clear statement & we'll be holding him to it!
