Agree

Yes, immediate universal commitment to protect pensioners' living standards regardless of economic cost

While supportive of pensioner welfare, the party's focus on fiscal responsibility to fund environmental and animal welfare transitions means they might hesitate at a commitment 'regardless of economic cost'.

Slightly agree

No, set a policy that pension increases should be linked solely to average earnings to ensure intergenerational fairness

Slightly disagree

No, focus on a 'Double Lock' that excludes the 2.5% minimum to save public funds

The party prioritizes social protection over minor public fund savings that might impact the living standards of those on lower incomes.

Disagree

No

Directly opposing the Triple Lock without a proposed alternative social security enhancement would conflict with the party's general commitment to social justice and protecting the vulnerable.
