#WHEFEvents Sue Pember: well said !! I'm in the voluntary sector and we see lifelong learning as no upper age limit and for well being as well as vocational. I chair Ransackers Assoc, https://t.co/HJopmHCIsF

[#WASPI Campaign @WASPI_Campaign]

Reports saying the government has saved £4bn by raising #WASPI women’s State Pension age are way off the mark. By 2026 they will have pocketed £181.4 billion. Plenty there to pay #FairandFastCompensation. Please retweet.

250,000 #WASPI women have now died waiting for compensation for lack of notice of State Pension age increases. The Government knew they had failed to inform and the #PHSO have found maladministration by the DWP. It's time to act to right this wrong for 3.6 million women.
