terribly sorry.

thanks policy.

'That?s why I think we need to look at something they do in Austria, where a crack team of medical experts is on hand to act as a sort of one-stop-shop to assess families and get them the help they need

That will only work if SSD are forced to be inclusive in their definitions

Four years after having ds1 diagnbosed and receiving High Rate Care, I was today told social services will indeed give us a carers assessment- for ds3. Because apparently ds1 is not disabled.

I shall remember that next time he knocks me unconscious,I shall tell him to stop the autism now.

It goes far deeper than making provisions- get out clauses need stopping.

david

what about those penisioners who have saved BUT want to live in their own home like my parents?

They have to pay a fortune from their savings for carers to come to the house?

Har har Times Alphamummy covering this event of World Shattering Importance live also...

am I the only person who is still impressed with Alan Johnson's turnout on MN?

I bet she'll work her socks off. AJ did, iirc.

how

The BBC licence fee is worth it for CBeebies alone.

Helo Dave,

could you please reply re. relatability (horrible word); how can we vote for you when we feel you do not understand our issues?

On banks, bankers and bonuses....

The problem with a Tobin tax is that if we applied it here and others didn't follow we would lose lots of companies that would simply go overseas. It is important to remember that financial services is not just the city - there are hundreds of thousands of people employed in banks, building socs, insurance etc around the country.

What we need is better regulation and we would put the Bank of England back in charge. they should also be able to regulate the level of debt in the economy.

Hi Dave

You have three minutes left to answer the question asked by many mumnsetters.

I'll paraphrase: "Why do you think ordinary people should vote for a bunch of white, male, upperclass, Privately educated (preferably from Eton) millionaires? Why can you really offer us except slightly bemused patronisation?"

foxy and alan sitting in a tree....K...I...S....S...I....N...G

Isn't that your standard response when more regulation is called for? The sort of regulation which might have stopped this debacle happening in the first place? Any regulation with sufficient teeth is probably going to send some companies overseas - do you have enough courage to do that?

Well they buggered it up before-do you know anything about unfair bank charges?

Herbie I think that's a bit harsh. You don't know what's going on in the background and that's a hell of an accusation.

Why should the taxpayer subsidise the care-home fees of people who own houses worth hundreds of thousands of pounds?

To Tambajam and anyone else asking about breastfeeding

Breast feeding can make a real difference to childrens? long term health but too many mums do not get the support they need in the early days.

We will introduce universal support from sure start Health Visitors to help give mums the encouragement and practical support they need, which is particularly critical when new parents don?t have other members of their family close by for help.

I think Health Visitors can also have a role in linking new mothers with more experienced mums.

Hey, what happened to the boffin who was retrieving the 'lost' responses? Perhpas the answer to my home ed question, and to the immigrants' one are there.

Why does anyone think that Labour understand you better? Surely the expenses scandal has shown how far removed they are from reality - Gerald Kaufman tried to claim £8k for a telly...............

You should tour the country, meeting Mumsnetters - we'll sort the country out for you (whilst also hearing the reading scheme book, making appt for MOT, cooking dinner...)

Slug....

you could be talking about Labour or the Liberals there....

Please give an answer to the Childrens' Centres questions - will you continue to fund them?
Thanks
