On behalf of millions of state pensioners I call on the Prime Minister to end the speculation over the future of the Triple Lock this year and abide by the Conservatives' manifesto promise to keep the Lock in place for the duration of this Parliament. 

We are still in the middle of a cost-of-living crisis, with energy and food prices rising much faster than the 8.5% prospective pension rise due next April under the Triple Lock. Any change in the way the Triple Lock is calculated, to make savings this year, will be regarded by older people as a breach of faith and a slippery slope to dispensing with the Lock altogether. 

The Triple Lock was introduced as a result of rising pensioner poverty, we do not want to go back to those dark days. So, Mr. Sunak, tell us now that you will implement the Triple Lock increase in full this year, on the basis of the existing formula.
