Triple lock: Lib Dems launching new attack ad following Badenoch’s plans to cut the state pension

EMBARGO: Immediate Release

The Liberal Democrats will be launching a new attack ad following Kemi Badenoch’s comments yesterday that she will consider means testing the triple lock.

The ad will highlight Kemi Badenoch’s three major announcements so far, cutting maternity pay which she described as ‘excessive’, slashing the state pension and putting UK interests at risk by sucking up to Elon Musk and Donald Trump.

A Liberal Democrat source said:

“First Kemi Badenoch came for the mothers and now she has set her sights on the grandmothers.

"Millions of pensioners felt betrayed by Labour's cut to the Winter Fuel Payment, now it's clear their pensions wouldn't be safe with the Conservatives.

"We will be reminding pensioners at every opportunity that Kemi Badenoch wants to take an axe to the triple lock."
