Petition One's own home to be exempt Care Home fees

More details

Please spare us having to lose our homes if we need Care. They have been saved for out of already-taxed income and are most people's biggest asset. It is iniquitous that those who are thrifty and have worked hard all their lives in order to own their property, should be penalised by having them taken into account if Care is needed. Please promise in the next Manifesto, that our children will be able to inherit them.
