Over the past few months, we in Reform UK have led the debate about what’s needed to help with the cost of living.
We were the first party to call on Ed Miliband to take VAT and green levies off energy bills to save the average household £200 on their bills.
We’ve demanded Labour reverse their planned fuel duty rise. And unlike any other party, we’ve committed to reversing it. In fact, given how the Chancellor is now raking it in in fuel taxes, we’ve said: halve VAT on fuel for the next 3 months.
But what are the Government doing? Nothing. In fact, they’re making life harder.

Reform Government will do everything we can to cut people’s cost of living. And now, we’ve set out how we’ll protect pensioners.

Millions of pensioners – and people in their late 50s, early 60s – are worried. They’ve paid in for 30 or 40 years. But they look at Labour borrowing left, right and centre, just like the Conservatives did. And they fear something’s got to give. They worry this Government – maybe soon led by Angela Rayner or Ed Miliband, backed up by Zack Polanski – will pull the rug from under them.

Well, under Reform, it will be different. We will protect the British people that have worked hard and done the right thing.

That’s why a Reform UK Government will keep the triple lock for state pensions. That means under Reform and Nigel Farage, your pension will always rise each year. With either inflation, average earnings. Or by 2.5%. Whichever of those three figures is highest.

We have taken our time to decide on this policy because we know just how major a commitment this is. We know that, after decades of borrowing and mismanagement, our national finances are a mess.

Reform is the only party that can credibly commit to keep the triple lock – because we are the only party with the backbone to cut the tens of billions of pounds wasted every year.

We’ve already committed to £40 billion of cuts and savings a year. We’ll end welfare for foreign nationals. Cap foreign aid. Stop spurious mental health claims for PIP. Scrap net zero schemes. Cut Whitehall excess and bloated quangos. And there are more cuts in wasteful spending to come.

So, yes: we’ll balance the books. We just won’t do it on the backs of British people who’ve paid in their whole life. Instead, we’ll save tens of billions by resetting Government spending so it puts the British people – and only the British people – first.

Politics is about choices. And we choose the British people. We will every time.
