Well it remains to be seen what plans, if any, the government have for social care
I thought Tom Peck in "The Independent" summarised it very well:
"Look, that’s not to say that raising £35bn of new taxes in the name of social care, directly from the people who can least afford to pay them, and then spending three-quarters of it on something else entirely, isn’t a moment of great national significance. Of course it is."
There is definitely a plan to raise money. How much of a plan there is beyond that remains to be seen.
