State pension triple lock 'will be broken' - Halligan says 'Young have endured burden!'
GB News presenter and Economic Editor Liam Halligan argued that he believes the state pension triple lock will be broken. He argued that Rishi Sunak was being unclear at a time where the public demanded certainty. He argued that if the triple lock was not broken it would spark fierce questions on intergenerational unfairness.
He noted that due to the Covid pandemic, the Government could be forced to give pension a 6-8 percent rise while the young people of the country suffer.”
Mr Halligan said: “I think the electorate would respect Rishi Sunak more if he treated them like grown-ups on these big issues.
“Michael is right, I think the triple lock is going to be broken.
“On my show with Gloria De Piero, earlier today on GB News, we had Guy Opperman on, the Junior Pension Minister and he used almost the same form of words when Gloria and I put to him are you going to maintain the triple lock.
