#WASPI women were right to challenge legally @Keir_Starmer's Government re the excuse given for not compensating them as this latest development confirms. @RachelReevesMP

Thank you to @BenMaguireMP and @LibDems for their support for #WASPI/#1950s women. @Keir_Starmer @RachelReeves prefer to ignore the recs of their own Ombudsman despite support for #WASPIs from many @UKLabour MPs. @2018_waspi

Thank you to @BrianLeishmanMP for your support. @UKLabour leading the way in rendering #Ombudsmen pointless. Others are following their lead @MartinSLewis ie @O2 @SSE failing to implement their Ombudsmen's recommendations.

The Ombudsman previously recommended payouts up to £3,000 for the WASPI women

But, at @BBCTheOneShow, the Government is leading the way in ignoring their Ombudsman's recommendations. @WASPI_2018/ #WASPIs case in point. @SSE are just following suit. Lead by example @Keir_Starmer @RachelReevesMP

Apparently, @TorstenBell is going to 'look into' the details of a letter sent by @iqbalmohamed MP re #WASPI women on 27.7.25 for which he has yet to receive a reply. #NotGoingAway The Ombudsman previously said the WASPI women should get £3,000 compensation

Grateful thanks to @wendychambLD for your continued support for #WASPI women for #justice and #compensation. @PHSOmbudsman, after investigating for 6 yrs, made these recommendations after much scrutiny of the facts. #NotGoingAway #1950s women.
With the Budget just a month away, I’ve urged the Gov to deliver long-overdue justice for WASPI women. The Ombudsman has been clear: these women were failed by the system, and they deserve fair compensation. It’s time for the Government to meet with WASPI, listen, and act.

Great to catch up with @WASPI_campaign in Parliament this week. 1950s women have suffered grave injustice, they should not have to fight, it is morally right for the Government to right this clear historic wrong.
