If wage increases start to go up, inflation normally follows suit.
So while there may be a delay, it probably wont have as big an effect on pension rises as some think.
If Starmer was advised to be this bold, then he clearly wasn't listening.
I don't know if Burnham will work out, but I am pleased a politician is telling people they can't have everything for once. The triple-lock is expensive and was eventually going to have to go. 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
