The triple lock is really delivering for pensioners right now: over the course of this parliament it's set to increase the value of the state pension by around about £2,000 a year - significant uplifts to the state pension.

We are committed to the triple lock. It’s in our manifesto. The triple lock has really delivered for pensioners, in this country, over the course of this Parliament.
