Understanding my point, is obviously not yours. Pensioners ought to be raised above the triple lock in, in order to get pensions on a par with many European countries. The triple lock, effectively keeps them relatively poor in comparison. Are we not one of the richest countries in the World?

No where, do I blame Labour for poor pensions, both parties over the years have found it, "Helpful" to keep pensions pinned.
