A backbench MP needs just five years to build a pension nearly as big as the state pension pays out after a lifetime of work.

And now Burnham is going to scrap the triple lock.

The PM has announced that from April 2030 the State Pension will be uprated with a new 'smoothed' triple lock.

What does that mean for the value of the State Pension and how does it differ from uprating with earnings or prices?

Triple lock replacement must protect pensioners from poverty
Maintaining the triple lock until 2030 is vital, but the system proposed to replace it must provide equally robust protection for pensioners who rely on the State Pension to make ends meet.

#BBCNews Why are we even considering scrapping the #TripleLock? #Pensioners contributed all their lives, as a percentage of pay, so inflation-adjusted. It's crazy that #StatePension is paid from current money. We need to set up and pay #pensions from a Sovereign Fund and respect our senior citizens
