Original Note:
This account, part of the Conservative Party, alleges Labour are imposing a retirement tax. The Labour Party have committed to maintaining the Triple Lock (https://labour.org.uk/updates/stories/labour-party-pensions-policy-we-will-keep-the-pension-triple-lock-and-give-pensioners-security-in-retirement/). The "Retirement Tax" proposals refer to not raising the tax-free threshold on pensions, not a new tax (https://fullfact.org/economy/labour-retirement-tax/).
