Women affected by the way changes to the state pension age were communicated have been told for the second time they will not receive compensation.
Work and Pensions Secretary Pat McFadden told the Commons a targeted compensation programme would “not be practical”, with a wider flat-rate scheme costing up to £10.3 billion.
Women Against State Pension Inequality (Waspi) has long-campaigned for compensation.
Government chooses to treat #WASPI women and @PHSOmbudsman with utter contempt, refusing to acknowledge the harm done by @DWPgovuk maladministration.
For this, I want to repeat the apology that (former work and pensions secretary Ms Kendall) gave on behalf of the Government.
