Jeremy Hunt is drawing up plans to delay the Tories’ flagship cap on care home fees in a blow to hundreds of thousands of frail Brits.
The Chancellor has looked at delaying the £86,000 lifetime limit on what each person pays for care in England from October 2023 to October 2024.
Treasury sources confirmed “nothing is off the table” as Mr Hunt looks to hack tens of billions off public spending in a new era of austerity.
