Speaking in the House of Commons on 17 March 2025

Debate

Women’s Changed State Pension Age: Compensation

Contribution

I congratulate the hon. Lady on opening this important debate. Some 74% of the public support fair compensation for WASPI women. What does it say about this place and our democracy if, when 74% of the public have that opinion, we as a Parliament do not act to give WASPI women fair compensation?
