Prime Minister Andy Burnham is expected to use his Labour conference speech in Liverpool to signal a willingness to review the pension triple lock to help fund a national social care service. Reports suggest he will call for an 'honest conversation' about the policy, despite warnings from union leaders that scrapping it would be 'electoral suicide'. Housing Secretary Angela Rayner said pensioners may accept changes if the money is clearly directed to social care.
