Anyone who tells you otherwise is outright lying. The fact that it goes up by the highest increase of wages, inflation or 2.5% means it can increase real fast, and within a few years the government is suddenly having to find billions they may not have expected a few years prior.
The politicians now who say they will bring it back are almost certainly lying as well.

Next you'll be telling me that Burnhams not for Turning
