'Poll shows collapse in @UKLabour.Support from #WASPI #1950s women'. So many Labour and Conservative MPs in marginal seats, so many more #WASPI women in those constituencies.

The hardship women endure vs men in retirement compounded by @UKLabour's decision not to compensate them for a shortfall of an expected circa £49,000 from each of #1950s women's pension pots. Unforgiveable.

The hardship retired women endure compounded by a loss of circa £40k from #WASPIs #1950s women's pension pots for which the @UKLabour Government refused compensation. #misogynists #Sexist @Keir_Starmer @RachelReevesMP.

When the state treats women this way it is clear that the culture is misogynistic. Female MPs need to emulate the English women's football team members by standing up for women for justice. #WASPI #1950s .

Ministers claim they will accept a pay rise to £94,000 pa, cos they “must accept the decision of the independent body,” but had no hesitation dismissing the independent @PHSOmbudsman view that women should receive a few crumbs for the injustice suffered.

Yesterday I spoke in support of the campaign to secure justice for the Waspi & 1950s women that were robbed of their pension rights & who have received no compensation despite the Ombudsman’s report calling for action from the government.Shameful the government has refused to act

The speech by @RLong_Bailey at yesterday's debate was excellent. She is extremely knowledgeable about the #1950s women's issue. She spoke eloquently and with passion. She bravely stands up for what is right. Thank you Rebecca.
