‘It’s undemocratic’: Waspi women on the decision not to pay compensation

Some are questioning loyalty to Labour while others say move is unconstitutional

Hilary Simpson is fed up with being asked how she feels about the government’s failure to tell her that the pension age had changed and its refusal to compensate her.

“It’s abundantly clear how we’re all feeling,” she said “Campaigners have given endless interviews, spelling out the devastating effects of the initial injustice – and now the government has said it won’t compensate us, we’re moved beyond feelings: this is now a serious, constitutional issue.”
