We were overwhelmed with cross-party support yesterday. 100 MPs joined us to meet our regional #WASPI campaigners who came from as far as Devon and Dundee. MPs champion our calls for fair compensation and want Ministers to act before our High Court hearing in December.

Instead of attending party conferences this year, #WASPI is prioritising work on the Judicial Review with our own MPs drop-in in Westminster in October. Our legal team is hard at work, and campaigning carries on behind the scenes. đŒ #JudicialReview

New Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, Pat McFadden, hasn't reaffirmed his past #WASPI support. If he's your MP, urge him for WASPI women's compensation! Find him on our map here https://t.co/YqL1V9dHya đ

"We didnât think we we'd have to take our own Govt to court, especially a @UKLabour Govt which fully supported us in Opposition & claims to have social justice at its core. The sense of betrayal we felt last December is undiminished." @WASPI_Campaign #WASPI

Support for @WASPI_Campaign in opposition is not an election campaigning tool, to be forgotten when you are in power @UKLabour. Promises made need to be delivered. @leicesterliz @AngelaRayner @Keir_Starmer @RachelReevesMP #WASPI

âOur verdict on Labourâs first year: nowhere near enough action to restore trustâ. #WASPI women agree: promises broken, Ombudsman ignored, forced to take legal action to get justice. None of this restores trust in @UKLabour government. https://t.co/NXDGwD8rrS via @FullFact

Congratulations on your first year in office @TorstenBell. Now please help your leader to fulfil his pre-election pledge to #WASPI women. You heard at yesterdayâs debate just how much backbenchers want that to happen.
One year ago today, I had the honour of being elected MP for Swansea West. I've spent every day since then working for a better future for people in Swansea. Here's some of what I've been getting up to so far đ

Sir Julian Lewis explains how âŠ@PHSOmbudsmanâ© needed to involve Parliament on the #WASPI issue because she knew âŠ@DWPgovukâ© would refuse to comply. When government bodies fail to comply, it brings the whole system of checks and balances into disarray.

âI am angry about this. All the promises given over the years have been reneged on and dishonouredâŠLike the #WASPI women, I have had enoughâenough of these debates, enough of promises not delivered, enough of watching the suffering women have had to endure because of this
