Marriage matters…. Hopefully now with the support of GB News in telling our story and the commitment from Liz Truss the 300 War Widows will get their pensions reinstated. All we did was get married again. Gillian Blythe GB News Angie MacKenzie Mark White War Widows Assoc

The only way through grief is to go through it. 🧡 Grief is just love with nowhere to go.

Thank you to my local MP Douglas Ross Douglas Ross MSP for your time today and your continued support of the Parity With Our Peers campaign for reinstatement of the war widows pension to the 300 war widows left behind Gillian Blythe Mary Merida55 Jude Howcroft

Please don’t forget about the often ‘forgotten group’ Bereaved Families. Not your remit, but in today’s Government, some Widows are STILL having to fight for their WWP- or at least the agreed ex-gratia payment!

Rt Hon Andrew Murrison MD VR Royal British Legion UK House of Commons Absolutely disgusted with your response today regarding the ex-gratia payment. I wish I had known when I thanked you, in person, and told you my story- you didn’t even mention I didn’t meet the criteria-criteria that was not agreed! Was always about the WWP! #betrayed#deceived

raqual harper-titche Rt Hon Andrew Murrison MD VR Royal British Legion UK House of Commons Raqual thinking of you and all the others that were left behind after the ultimate sacrifice was paid, unbelievable that a government that espouses family values can treat war widows this way. Broken promises to the men and women who served.

It was sobering, too, that while thousands had crowded the cenotaph less than an hour before the war widows’ service, few remained to pay their respects to those left behind. Sometimes, it’s easier to remember the dead than it is to face those who are a living reminder of them.
