Kemi Badenoch, Conservative leader, emphasized that the UK must prioritize support for those in need while acknowledging a 'structural problem' due to demographic changes.
She stated that means-testing government support is an area the party will explore, mentioning that 'we don't do means-testing properly here' in the UK.
In discussing financial pressures due to longer lifespans and lower birth rates, Badenoch asserted that 'serious thinking' is needed to address government spending in later life.
Badenoch clarified that while the party would not specifically target the triple lock, 'where we make our money' needs immediate attention for sustainable solutions.
