Yes agree, what a joke of an amount for social care 3billion Over the next 3 years. To think over the last 7 years there's been 17b of cuts and deficits . It ain't going to do a thing.

Scope's done a bit of a summary here if you're interested:

I'd agree with the blog that it's disappointing that the Government didn't even mention, let alone reconsider, upcoming changes to disability benefits.
