The prime minister has watered down his pledge that no one will have to sell their home to pay for social care.
The PM is holding out against a climbdown on its provision despite a Tory rebellion in the Commons on Monday.
Yesterday morning Boris Johnson told his cabinet that the reforms would mean that “no one will be forced to sell a home they or their spouse is living in”. This is being seen as a tacit acknowledgment that a home could be sold once the person needing care or their spouse no longer occupied their property.
