I would like the annual state pension increase to be the same amount for both the Old and New State Pension, based on the triple lock.

Because inflation affects the cost of living equally, but each year the gap between both pensions can widen, which I think is unfair. Also, it can increase the amount of pensioners requiring extra benefits!
