What a betrayal the week before Christmas Listening to the minister giving her reasons for NOT paying any compensation to #Waspi women it’s very simple to this cruel Labour Government It’s too late; too complicated; too messy & too expensive to take any action #whitewash

UK Govt spinning yarns. Whilst denying pension compensation to 1950s women, the Minister said the new State Pension will rise by more than £470 a year from April. What she didn't say was that only 26% of pensioners will get full amount, others less. gov.uk/government/spe…

It is beyond disappointing that Liz Kendall has rejected any compensation for the WASPI women. First, the government cuts winter fuel. Now this? Whose side is the government on? WASPI women have been disgracefully cheated out of their pensions — and they deserve justice.

Here was Keir Starmer backing "justice to end the 'historic injustice'" suffered by WASPI women. He even tagged their campaign on his Facebook page.

What a shameful day. Starmer came to power pledging to restore trust in politics - this is destroying trust & wrecking lives. A massive injustice was done to #Waspiwomen - it’s a political choice not to remedy it

Treachery. Today, the Government announced that no compensation will be paid to the #WASPI Campaign, who have campaigned tirelessly for pension equality for women. I am disgusted by this decision and will continue to do all I can to stand up for those affected.

This is @KeirStarmer before his party was elected, holding a pledge saying he supports fair and fast compensation for #WASPIs. However, having gained our votes and is now PM, he's changed his mind. #Justice? #Honesty? #Truth? Lying bustards.

'If it is acceptable for a department to completely reject the findings of a report by the independent Parliamentary Ombudsman, this strikes a blow at the heart of the whole process. 'There is a risk that governments will now feel emboldened to "pick and choose" when faced with

Keir Starmer needs to explain why in July 2022 he said the plight of WASPI women was a “real injustice” and today says there will be no compensation. See attached

The Government have betrayed millions of pension-aged women, who were wronged through no fault of their own. Today’s heartless decision cannot be allowed to stand and I will be pressing the Government to give those affected the fair compensation they so badly deserve #WASPI

The change to #WASPI women’s pension age has already saved the exchequer £181 billion. Paying compensation for government wrongdoing is a tiny fraction of that amount. This is a political choice; money is and has been found for other causes.

When one gains power in government through lies and false promises. #LabourLies Keir Starmer should we be surprised about the lies that came out in PMQs today? Hang your head in shame. Here's a reminder of how Gov looked after their own MP's pension age rise. #WASPIbetrayal

In case anyone missed the Rachel Reeves speech on #WASPI after she deleted it from her website, here she is before she threw her own mother under a bus a few years later. Labour has money for Ukraine, Syria, Africa, China and Pakistan, but none for our own elderly.

I spoke today calling for the government to back the WASPI and 1950s women’s campaign for compensation. I warned the minister that this campaign is not going away until we secure justice. #WASPI Campaign
