Jeremy Corbyn:

"I want to make an appeal to the older generation who built modern Britain.  It was you who rebuilt our country after the war, kick started our economy, built our NHS and created our social security system, it was your generation that built the council housing, won our rights at work and made our country a better place for all.  It was your work and taxes that paid for a better retirement for those that went before you, so we owe it to you, the older generation, to rebuild Britain so you have peace of mind and dignity.  We will fulfil that obligation with a triple lock on pensions protected along with the winter fuel allowance, a bus pass and a national health and care service that can look after you and your families with a respect you deserve.  This is solidarity between all generations"
