What issues did he solve, I saw the triple lock becomes a double lock (and isn't it inflation that has been the upward driver of pensions value which remains in the lock) and something vague about not paying for care homes at time of use?
No. Pensions were linked to inflation before the triple lock. The figures I’ve seen referenced are that, under the proposed approach, pensions would have been 11% lower today. In the 16 years since the triple lock was introduced, earning have been used 6 times (and they ignored them as the criteria in 2022 because the number would have been too high).
