The Conservatives, who had a large majority in the House of Lords, objected to this attempt to redistribute wealth, and made it clear that they intended to block these proposals. Lloyd George reacted by touring the country making speeches in working-class areas on behalf of the budget and portraying the nobility as men who were using their privileged position to stop the poor from receiving their old age pensions.

If it wasn't for the Liberal Party, supported Labour, you wouldn't even have an old age pension to moan about if the Conservatives had had their way.
