There is good rationale, ignoring the opportunity to use it as a windfall to raise our diabolically low pension, for not using it this year. The windfall/catch up thing applies in spades to the UC uplift though; restoring parity between SSP and other working age income replacement benefits.

Will be interesting to see if there are backbench rebellions on either issue.

There were already rumblings before COVID that the triple lock had outstayed its welcome.
