Official account of the WASPI Campaign 2018. Fighting for state pension justice for #50'swomen.

[#WASPI Campaign @WASPI_Campaign]

“A repeated refusal to engage with an independent ombudsman’s findings sets a troubling precedent for your tenure going forward. I ask you to urgently revisit this issue with fresh eyes.” @BenMaguireMP writes to @andyburnham about #WASPI

[Ayoub Khan MP @AyoubKhanMP]

Now that @andyburnham is PM and has said he wants to honour pledges, will he finally deliver the compensation that @WASPI_Campaign women were promised and deserve? They have waited long enough. It’s time to put words into action. https://t.co/N212q2UsPX

[WASPI_2018 @WASPI_2018]

Hillsborough law is about Governments/organisations owning up to the truth. The Government must be honest about the mishandling of #WASPI women's state pension age increases and comply with the @PHSOmbudsman's recommendations. @andyburnham

We've had warm words from politicians before who have let us down once in Government. Can we trust @andyburnham? We really hope he will not perpetuate the duplicity of past PMs. @UKLabour @2018_waspi

Health Services and the Government must comply with the recommendations of its own watchdog @PHSOmbudsman We trust that the new PM will be true to his word as he has always expressed support for #WASPIs in the past. @andyburnham

"Undermining the office that is there to protect citizens from Government harm is a threat to democracy." @andyburnham thinks there should be redress and said he has always supported #WASPI women.

[WASPI_2018 @WASPI_2018]

The @DWP hasn't yet learnt how to comply with the recs of its own watchdog, the @PHSOmbudsman, which MPs use to investigate their constituents complaints. No #justice from @GOVUK 1 rule 4 them another 4 the rest of us. #misogyny

[WASPI_2018 @WASPI_2018]

Sadly, the @DWPgovuk has failed to learn how to deliver justice to #1950s women and it never acknowledges that the majority of #WASPIs recd NO NOTICE whatsoever, not just a delay!

[WASPI_2018 @WASPI_2018]

So #WASPIs are hoping that @AndyBurnhamGM will be the trustworthy person he purports to be when, and if, he becomes PM - or will he be as untrustworthy as those that have come before?

Dear @andy4makerfield ....... WASPI women are now aged 66 - 76. We already have a free bus pass. What we don't have is justice. @WASPI_2018 @WaspiLewes2018 @Waspiwlothian
https://t.co/YtDBslSzuZ

[WASPI_2018 @WASPI_2018]

So it seems that @AndyBurnhamGM
is not supporting compensation for #WASPIs and will not comply with the @PHSOmbudsman's recommendations despite clearly expressing his support previously.

Our co-campaigners have achieved the £100,000 target to fund the legal challenge regarding the Government's refusal to compensate #WASPI/#1950s women. #NotGoingAway

Good luck @WASPI_Campaign
We need another Govt u turn!

[WASPI_2018 @WASPI_2018]

Many Labour MPs supported compensation for #WASPIs before the election. Once elected, they didn't - some still do. @AndyBurnhamGM does. Will he still if elected? Trust in MPs is essential.

Is @AndyBurnhamGM
trustworthy? Would he stick to his promises to #WASPI women? He has always said he supports our campaign and believes in justice for #WASPIs/#1950s women. @Keir_Starmer

Once you've broken a promise, you have no credibility, no one can trust you and no matter what you say, you won't be believed. #WASPI women deserve justice and we all need MPs who are true to their word. @Keir_Starmer @AndyBurnhamGM

New analysis for the campaign found #WASPI women outnumber the majorities of sitting MPs in 302 constituencies - including 142 Labour-held seats. @Keir_Starmer

An update from our co-campaigners re the Judicial Review. #NotGoingAway @KeirStarmer and his #BrokenPromises to #WASPI #1950sWomen

[#WASPI Campaign @WASPI_Campaign]

The DWP is still defying the Ombudsman. If you want us to take action help WASPI fight back in Court. Donate to our Crowdjustice fund to support this TODAY. https://t.co/kKi1JrvZ79 #JusticeForWASPIWomen

[WASPI_2018 @WASPI_2018]

We've been given promises by @UKLabour before. Unfortunately, #WASPIs know, personally, that @KeirStarmer does not keep those promises or abide by the recs. of his own watchdog ie @PHSOmbudsman

[WASPI_2018 @WASPI_2018]

MPs will be asking questions re WASPI in Parliament. Many thanks to @JamesMacCleary @JimShannonMP and @SeamusLoganMP.
Watch the proceedings from around 2.30 on Monday 27th April on the BBC Parliament channel.
