Talks between Boris Johnson, Rishi Sunak and Matt Hancock called off as calls grow for plan to tackle crisis
A “do or die” meeting on social care involving Boris Johnson, Rishi Sunak and Matt Hancock has been postponed, it is understood, as the government came under renewed pressure over delays in setting out a policy for the sector.
The meeting between the prime minister, chancellor and health secretary, billed as a chance to set out broad policy objectives for social care, had been scheduled for Tuesday. It is not known why it was postponed, or when the meeting will take place.
