Events can mean, that you cannot possibly stick to manifesto pledges.

I'm not sure re the triple lock of pensioner additional support being broken.
Although if it's a fact that extra support is needed then make the pension of the right level to accommodate it.

Further, speaking for myself, to raise NI and or some taxation, to help fund social care and the NHS.
Then I am all in favour of that, as long as safeguards are in place to ensure, the extra raised, does only go to the NHS and social care.
Not wasted on unnecessary costly reforms as from 2011 before.

I support the government's efforts to improve social care and anything for the NHS extra is welcomed by me too.
