Petition updateSTOP THE STATE PENSION BEING TAXED: RAISE TAX THRESHOLD: SUPPORT COLETTE!

Starmer Stands Down! Will Burnham Do Better For Older People?

Dennis ReedBristol, ENG, United Kingdom

Andy Burnham is well placed to replace Keir Starmer as Prime Minister. During his campaign in Makerfield, Burnham pledged to stick with the Triple Lock and to bring forward social care reform. He also recognised that taxing the state pension was a big issue on the doorsteps which he would need to "look at". This is a direct reflection of the success of our campaign and this petition. As they say the proof of the pudding will be in the eating and we will hold Burnham to his promises. 

During the coming period of political uncertainty Silver Voices will be on its toes defending the interests of older people, so if you are not already a member, join us today to keep up with the news and help strengthen our campaigning voice!
