Hunt’s Pension Promise: Triple Lock Will Be In Manifesto
Category: News & Politics
Duration: 00:31:20
Publish Date: 2024-03-24 13:50:00
Description:

Today, we’ve heard the chancellor commit to keeping the triple lock pensions system in place, if the Conservatives win the next election.

It means the increase in the state pension will rise by the highest rate out of average earnings growth, inflation, or 2.5%.

Laura, Paddy and Henry also discuss whether the government should be counting a drop in inflation as a win.

And, the three of them discuss how traditional media is reflecting on its own role in the frenzy of speculation about the Princess of Wales that preceded her cancer diagnosis disclosure.
