Andy Burnham, Greater Manchester's mayor, has warned that "broken social care will in the end break the NHS". He argued that the crisis in care services places mounting pressure on hospitals, making sustained investment and reform of social care essential to protecting the health service. The warning adds to ongoing political debate in the UK over how to fund and fix the care system.
Why now: Social care funding and NHS pressures are a live UK political debate, and a senior mayor's stark warning draws attention.
