Andy Burnham, the UK Prime Minister, is set to signal his willingness to review the pension triple lock policy in his speech at the Labour Party conference. The triple lock, which ensures the state pension increases annually based on inflation, wage growth, or 2.5%, has been criticized for being unsustainable in the long term. Burnham is expected to suggest reviewing the policy in the party's next manifesto to fund a national care service. The move has sparked debate and concern among party members and the public, with some arguing it's 'electoral suicide'.
