By 2040, that will be one in four.

Now beyond just healthcare, what’s even more needed is social care and support. There are so many, extremely integrated dependencies between health and care - dependencies that have been ignored for far too long.

If Andy Burnham is serious about an NCS in our

- cowardly selfish senior leadership - bring the NCS on ASAP but the **** NHS has to be made more eFFICIENT :-) ASAP - GO Digitall, DO Digitall ===
there is so much more to caring than talking, than being (no disrespect) a consultant, a doctor, a NURSE, yeah, all UK citizens to some extent are responsible for a collapsing NHS but sum are far more responsible than others, and I have tbh

Lots of "what's he going to do for three years though?" But what if St Andrew intends to return us to God's own ordained four year Parliamentary term?

Plenty to do for two years between welfare reform, devolution, police reform and preparing to do NCS

Oh he actually called it National Care Service. Cool.

I support an NCS; but not at the expense of pensioners. From the wealthy; and through borrowing.

note to CUH NHS FT ... following the WWs the NHS was a precious gift to all generations from those In Charge (IC), the NCS is not a gift ... IT is a NECESSITY FOR ALL, SOOOO ... NOTE TO ALL ORGS AND ALL PEOPLE --- PLEASE DO NOT JUST DISCUSS IT, talk about it, debate it, GET BEHIND IT👍

I'm not cheering yet because I really feel we need more detail. As a pensioner I knew something would have to give on triple lock, but I really can't fathom out (as Ian alludes to) how those savings will 'fund' NCS

But overall, the tone and the promises were ticking a lot, but not all, of my boxes

IHT will also be in effect for pensions and that too will mean more IHT tax, not a huge amount perhaps, but it will be a few billion.

This and other tax collection might be enough to get NCS started, perhaps initially the care at home element, then build on that.

NCS?
September 29, 2026 at 5:02 PM
It's probably enough to cover the setup stages, the consulting etc. Enough to put NCS into "in-progress" state while other means of funding are progressed.
September 29, 2026 at 4:57 PM
NCS won't even be setup until the 2030s. Any talk of taxing the super rich now means the super rich have tens years to plan their exit from the UK.
September 29, 2026 at 4:50 PM
With pensions coming into IHT (rightly) and what sounds like potential future charge on private pensions for NCS, I think we'll might see a resurgence in the annuities sector in the future.

Billionaires first Andy Burnham. I refuse create a national care system in 2026

I refuse create a NCS in 2027

I refuse create a NCS in 2028.

I refuse create a NCS in 2029.

I don’t have to wait. I could tax my rich friends and do it now.

I just don’t care enough seniors

I will do it in 2030

Sigh. I read it. You didn't.

"And it will hold its value relative to earnings over time so that pensioners will always share in the rising prosperity of the nation."

This is IMO good policy but means there will be essentially no "significant savings" short/medium term to "build up the NCS."
September 29, 2026 at 4:09 PM
It's very simple either you go with reallocating resources to a NCS or you go with Reform which redirects resources to billionaires, golden visas. How can a super billionaire party of tax exiles ever relate to the NHS or NCS. They would and have said they will privatise the NHS losing the UK trns.
September 29, 2026 at 4:07 PM
Definitely mad to say it’s going to pay for a national care service. If we’d had the proposed double lock instead from outset, we’d be 9bn a year better off. Only 1/2 the cost of an NCS now, and those savings will not be realised for decades, by which time it’ll be an even smaller proportion.
September 29, 2026 at 3:17 PM
I'll wait to see the detail as listening in the car to a BBC clip of the speech I thought triple lock gone to fund NCS? That sounds a bit odd
September 29, 2026 at 3:00 PM
Isn’t the argument that once the NCS is up and running it will save the country money in care costs/NHS savings from clearing the hospitals, thus reducing the escalator effect? Not sure of the maths on that, but I think that’s the idea?

黄色の五条デッキ考えてるけど構築むっちゃむずい…
2回ブロックとか釘崎とか黄色のカラートリガーとか、受けが強そうな印象だからそっち活かしたいんだけど、いかんせんレイドがあんまり積めないデッキがどういう動きになるのか想像できないのが悩ましい。
というかドロー手段なさ過ぎて手札カラッカラになる予感しかしない。
とりあえずこんなんで組んでユニチケ大会でも参加してみようかな(NCSの五条は1枚しか持ってない)

A new state service, National Care Service (NCS).

How about introducing an NCS contribution in the tax system.

It will make it super clear to everyone how they contribute toward the service that they themselves might one day need, or their family already uses.
