Keep the State Pension Triple Lock

Background

We want the Government to keep the State Pension triple lock. It protects pensioners against rising living costs and ensures pensions keep pace with earnings. Scrapping it could leave millions of pensioners worse off over time and undermine financial security in retirement.

Additional details

We want the Government to keep the State Pension triple lock. It ensures pensions rise by the highest of inflation, earnings growth or 2.5%, protecting pensioners from rising living costs and falling behind working people. The State Pension is vital for millions who have paid National Insurance and rely on it for food, energy and housing. Weakening the triple lock could mean lower increases that compound over time, leaving pensioners worse off, undermining financial security in retirement
