Thanks I've signed it. It would be tragic as Social Services wouldn't have the manpower to see everybody so most people would lose out. Apart from the fact that I would prefer to decide what my needs are not some stranger.

:thumbsup: My sentiments entirely......I'm also conderned that if the money wasn't 'ringfenced' it would end up being spent on admin costs/consultants :roll: rather than the actual care needs of people!!!
