Reform will “betray pensioners” if it reaches Number 10 as Farage fails to rule out changes to triple lock

3 Nov 2025

EMBARGO: Immediate Release

Responding to Nigel Farage failing to rule out changes to the triple lock if he was in Government, Liberal Democrat Treasury Spokesperson Daisy Cooper MP said:

“Farage is looking to raid the pockets of some of the most vulnerable pensioners to pay for his anti-net zero agenda and the mysterious, unelected ‘advisers’ he envisages running the Government.

“He is no champion of pensioners — he’d betray them if he ever reached Downing Street.

“The Lib Dems were proud to introduce the pension triple lock to tackle pensioner poverty and we will fight to protect the pensioners of today and tomorrow from the vultures in Reform UK.”
