Those affected by the rapid rise to 66 were NOT notified before about earlier changes which affected us too Janet's table confirms dates Ombudsman agrees all #50sWomen should have been notified earlier at same time which in my view only reinforces case for #FullRestitution

#50sWomen just a reminder of the conclusions reached by the APPG on State Pension Inequality It seems a far cry from conclusions the #PHSO appears to be reaching Another stitch-up? Like the refusal of #SupremeCourt to even hear our case as "out of time"? #FullRestitution

@allybally121 #BackTo60 have not asked for the age to be changed as this would affect primary legislation. They have asked for #FullRestitution of earned dues for all #50sWomen which is a different thing. The statement seeks to sow seeds of doubt. Keep strong ladies!

I can't accept there was no maladministration 1995-2005 If in 2005 a significant number of women did not know how the changes would affect them how could the DWP have "met expectations" for communication? 47000 leaflets for 3.8m women? #50sWomen #BackTo60 #FullRestitution

Is it a coincidence that this is happening at the time that millions of #50sWomen have been removed from the unpaid caring cohort by having their #StatePensionAge raised by 6 yrs, thereby increasing the demand on public services? An impact assessment in 1995 might have told govt

Let's take a scenario. Correct me if I am wrong. Man born in 1950 has a wife born 1955. They expect to retire together in 2015 when he is 65 and she is 60. But in 2010 he loses his job or gets sick. He is given 5 years auto credits on NI and allowed to retire on benefits.
