Recycle, recycle

The Tories would like to put a cap on care costs for the elderly, but it remains just a New Labour-style aspiration. At the latest incarnation, the position of the cap has drifted up from £72,000 to £85,000, which suggests that if it ever gets into a manifesto, the cap level will have drifted so high as to be meaningless for most people.
    Same with the old migration thing. The current PM is minded to keep Dave the Leader’s aspiration of tens of thousands for net migration. Which is as likely to be achieved as UKIP’s one out, one in policy.
