For Women Who Were Denied Their Pension At 60

[-SharonA-]

We all know that the pension age for women born in the fifties has been raised. Did you know a campaign called "Back to 60 movement "has won the right to a Judicial Review and is taking the DWP to the High Court ? On the 5th and 6th June they will attempt to get the 3.9 million women justice over non consultation in raising the pensionable to 66 and above. Michael Mansfield QC will lead the case and the argument for the movement. However there does not appear to be any media coverage regarding this significant event. That is why I am raising the awareness now. Let's hope and pray for justice rightly deserved.
Seems to be a media blackout on this issue which suggests that the government have put a block on the media reporting it.

PP my argument (which may or may not have been put) is that folk like me made financial decisions based on one set of rules for all of our working lives and in my case the rules on which I based those decsions continued to change right up until 12 months before I could claim my pension...way to late to be able to take action to recover from the financial loss that those decisions caused me. The folk on the DWP helpline kept telling me that they didn't know what the rules would be that would decide what my pension would turn out to be. It was a complete male chicken up

“full restitution would cost something in the region of £215 billion

Why is that a problem? This govt doesn't care about the cost of anything at the moment. The non-action over CV-19 is ruining the country, so 215 billion is just a drop in the ocean.

don't see it happening at all, much too costly...
