Childish and foolish I am not! My patience has been eroded by misstep after misstep, mistake after mistake. As a Waspi who has a very small private pension, the removal of the WFA, the refusal to pay compensation to Waspi's and the frantic U-turns means I have no confidence in this Labour govt.

1. People don't pay for their own benefits.
2. Benefits' terms can change at any time. This isn't a secret, eg the state pension was cut in 1980 (earnings link removed) to save money for WASPI's generation, back when they were paying for the wartime generation's state pensions.

I knew in the 90s way before I started my own pension that the male/female pension ages were being equalised.

I'm glad to have contributed to WASPI's campaign for justice, both locally and in Parliament.
Going forward, the Government's review must progress without delay, and any subsequent action must be swift.
WASPI women must be given their rightful compensation as soon as this is made possible.

Whilst I can convince myself I don't mind paying extra tax for the variety of things that need fixing in government. Giving a free handout to Waspi's is a line in the sand!

Following reports in the media that Ministers will be announcing compensation for WASPI women today, we await with bated breath. WASPI's calls for compensation are backed by hundreds of MPs, alongside an overwhelming majority of the public.
Any statement will take place after 15.30 in the Commons.

Don't worry, Kevin, that just means we've got 69,987 jobs still to come, once Sarwar has saved Grangemouth & sorted out the restitution for the WASPI's that he promised to do during the election campaign.

CCOs are appropriate only where there is an important point of law that needs to be resolved, where the claimant would not be able to raise the funds and have to withdraw. None of that applies here, as is demonstrated by the recent increase in Crowdfunding donations and Waspi's own resources.
