WASPI group demands fairness from Labour over pension equality issues

WASPI, a group advocating for fair state pensions for women, has issued a warning to the Labour party to "do better" regarding pension equality. They raised over £90,000 in a day to support their cause. The group is demanding compensation for 3.6 million women born in the 1950s who were not adequately informed about changes to the state pension age. They have sent a "letter before action" to the government, preparing for a potential judicial review. The government has acknowledged issues in communication but refuses to pay for a £10.5 billion compensation scheme. The Prime Minister stated that the taxpayer cannot bear this financial burden.
