Making decisions about social care requires tough choices During a recent Institute for Government event, the former Chancellor George Osborne, spoke about social care. I held my breath as I wondered if he was going to join the long list of former politicians who get converted to the cause after leaving office. But no. Instead he spoke the unspoken about social care: ‘[The political consequence of fixing social care] is incredibly unpopular. It’s much more straightforward politically to keep kicking the can down the road.’ The King's Fund
