This is such a thoughtful contribution. It is true that Councils have a hierarchy of “priorities” at the bottom of which are carers. We can not isolate carers from how Councils choose to spend budgets on care services. Councils know carers will carry on looking after their loved ones whether they get support or not. They take that as their baseline when choosing where to spend. I too watch my mam struggle every with tying to care for and preserve the dignity of my dad. She had an assessment and was told she didn’t meet the threshold for respite care. When I asked some questions about the assumptions and the conclusions of said assessment, social worker questions, I was deemed “aggressive” and “hostile”. That’s the context in which social workers practice and that’s the context that forces them to forget how to be advocates.

If this or any subsequent Government injected a trillion pounds into the competition driven profit focused care services it would subsequently not be enough. Its so typical of the liberal mindset that it can never admit the fundamentals of a problem but wallows in the agonies of trying to contain it’s manifestation. A practically unregulated marketplace infected by large hedge fund domination will always swallow funding because its first priority is dividend payments and bonuses for executives not real investment in making services affordable let alone ‘customer’ focused’. It’s so predictable and almost comical that the response is always for more Government cash rather than calling out the price fixing cartels that leech on public funds with little regard to the quality or otherwise of the ‘product’ they peddle. Buy into the market economy and you are sucked into getting what the parasites think you deserve and pay the wack they hold you hostage to. In the meantime while the LGA gets out the annual begging bowl and the money floods into off shore registered tax avoiders, carers like my dad get patronised then ignored until the merry go round starts again. What incentive have councils to acknowledge how they also exploit the love and dedication of carers? None, because platitudes serve them well. Councils know that carers are always going to be the bit part players in the wider care services they know isn’t working but they are wedded to. The reality for carers is that much as professionals, and I include Carers UK under that umbrella, like to depict them as being outside of formal care services, they are not. My dad doesn’t get respite input because thresholds Council financial assessments set are determined by the budget they have set to pay for residential care. One is dependent by the priorities of the other. It’s not more complicated than that.
