The WASPI campaign argues that women born in the 1950s were not given adequate information about the rising state pension age
WASPI women have been hit with a fresh setback as the compensation bill that was set to be discussed in Parliament has been postponed.
While WASPI agrees with equalising the state pension age for men and women, they claim the government failed to provide some women with sufficient time to adjust their retirement plans. Since its inception in 2015, WASPI has been fighting for compensation for around 3.6 million women affected, reports the Mirror.
