'Direct action' in WASPI pension fight

Women calling for compensation over pension inequality are aiming to meet MPs on their home turf...
-
WOMEN Against State Pension Inequality (WASPI) campaigners are set to visit Parliament in the coming weeks to present their case to MPs once again.
Despite the Government's announcement last year that there would be no payouts, they are pressing on in their fight for compensation from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP).
Many individual MPs back their cause, advocating for compensation for the generation of women born in the 1950s, who WASPI and other campaign groups represent.
The WASPI campaign has been fighting for its cause for more than a decade, with campaigners often attending political party conferences during September and October to make their case. However, this year, they have opted for an alternative event in Westminster.
