Thousands of women affected by changes to the UK state pension age remain without compensation after the government again ruled out a redress scheme, despite an official finding of maladministration and a formal apology. Background To Pension Age ChangesThe Women Against State Pension Inequality campaign group, known as WASPI, was formed in 2015 to represent women born in the 1950s who were affected by increases to the state pension age. Government chooses to treat #WASPI women and @PHSOmbudsman with utter contempt, refusing to acknowledge the harm done by @DWPgovuk maladministration. You lied to the WASPI women to get votes and made promises you knew you would never keep. While the government has issued an apology for failures in communication, affected women remain without financial redress more than 15 years after the pension age changes were first announced.
