WASPI Judicial Review
/I have been a long-term supporter of the Women Against State Pension Inequality (WASPI) Campaign and their pursuit of justice.
The only avenue left for the group is to take their case to a Judicial Review given the PHSO’s Stage 2 report, and they are hoping to raise £100,000 in order to fund this legal battle.
It is unacceptable that women born in the 1950s have had their state pension age increased without adequate notice or compensation.
The UK government must be held accountable for the impact this has had on the affected women, many of whom have been left struggling to make ends meet including more than 6,500 in my constituency and 3.8 million across the UK.
The judicial review will provide an opportunity to challenge the Government's decision and seek justice for those who have been unfairly impacted.
It is important to reiterate my support for their cause will continue to fight for their rights at Westminster and engage with the local Cunninghame WASPI Group.
