Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor George Galloway (Workers Party of Britain), on Monday, 25 March 2024, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 13 members in total.


Women Against State Pension Inequality (WASPI)

That this House commends the WASPI campaigners who have fought for many years against unilateral and discriminatory changes to the state pension age; welcomes the report of the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman which found the Department for Work and Pensions was clearly guilty of maladministration over its treatment of WASPI women; condemns the protracted failure of the Government to commit to paying compensation; calls on the Government to apologise forthwith; believes £2,950 is not adequate compensation; and further calls on the Government to fully compensate the WASPI women for the losses and delay they have suffered.
