The suggestion that justice should be dispensed on the basis of Govt deciding whether it's fair to taxpayers is deeply disturbing. Pick 'n mix justice decided on a political whim is no justice at all. It would be another layer of injustice for #WASPI #1950swomen . #WASPI Campaign
#WASPI #1950swomen have paid tax. Some still do; more now thanks to fiscal drag. They've contributed billions to the economy in unpaid work too. The evidence is clear. Department for Work and Pensions is guilty & compensation should be paid. No ifs. No buts. No more obfuscation. #WASPI Campaign
Compensation should be given with absolutely no means testing! Means testing will only exacerbate the injustice suffered by #1950s #WASPI women. WASPI 2018 Ceredigion Waspiwestlothian WASPIWestDunbarton

' #StatePension is foundation of income in retirement.' Yes, Department for Work and Pensions, & especially for women who are far more likely to rely on it than men. So stop delaying & start paying compensation to #WASPI #1950swomen for your proven mistakes. #WASPI Campaign

Contrast this with the appalling treatment meted out by Department for Work and Pensions to #WASPI women. #DWP didn't even bother to act on its own evidence & inform #1950swomen about life-impacting #StatePension age changes. We didn't matter then & it seems we still don't. #WASPI Campaign justice now.
Will you be supporting over 6000 #WASPI women in your constituency affected by Department for Work and Pensions maladministration proven by Rob Behrens One more woman dies every 13 mins while the government procrastinates over the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman recommendations, have 5yrs. of his work been in vain ?
More than ⅔ of general public think #WASPI women should get compensation. Conservatives and The Labour Party 'dangerously out of step with public opinion'. From Sunday Express
#WASPI Campaign WASPI_2018 In my area alone #Essex 100,000+ women potentially affected by #maladministration by #DWP We have waited too patiently for too long , time to have read #WarAndPeace let alone 100 page report that you've known about for ages Mel Stride #NoMeansTest
Every 13 minutes another #WASPI #1950s woman dies. Meanwhile the #Tories are conducting a 'thorough review' of an investigation already carried out by Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman that has found #maladministration by DWP recommending compensation. Action is needed now. manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/cost-of-l…
Lisa Nandy If you want to be thought of as honest and trustworthy then please commit to your previously declared support for #WASPI women. #FairandFastCompensation 3.8m women are waiting to see if your intentions are honourable.
'Means testing has never been the basis of any court system & it's never been the basis of any compensation scheme. It would be a further injustice to #WASPI women to make that the case here.' Exactly, Jane Cowley. #WASPI Campaign #1950swomen
Thank you for your support Kevin Maguire. #WASPI #1950s Women need #FairandFastCompensation now. The Government needs to show that it acknowledges and addresses the injustice suffered from NO NOTICE of up to 6 yrs increase in state pension age.
Absolutely brilliant to meet with Waspiwestlothian this week, I'm so proud to support their campaign calling for #FairandFast compensation. These ladies are warriors! West Lothian Libdems 🔶 Scottish Lib Dems WASPI_2018 #WASPI #WaspiWomen
how long does it take to analyse a 100 page report most of which you’ve had for
months? obfuscation? surely not? Mel Stridemp
