Deform UK Ltd say they will save the triple lock, but their think-tank wants to scrap the state pension. No pension? No triple-lock required.
Newspaper article with headline Thinktank linked to Reform UK calls for abolition of state pension. Text includes 'Radical' report likely to influence party's platform also proposes abolishing inheritance and capital gains taxes. Credit to Kalyeena Makortoff Banking correspondent.

Suella Braverman’s parents emigrated (they were horrible economic migrants not from a war zone she hates). She went to Cambridge for free and didn’t collect £27k debt like everyone else. Scrounger. She used the Erasmus scheme to study in France. Which she has blocked. Horrible

Diesel in the UK reached record levels this week. Now, It begs the question, how much would Scotland’s last refinery be making just now? Note- Price is from March 2024 following an increase in the price of fuels in 2023. And yet Westminster continuously denies us the right make our own choices!!!
