Rejected petition Reconsider changing state pension age for women born in 50's back to 60

Most of the women born in the 50's have worked from being 15/16 years old & paid national insurance & tax. We believe we have been short changed by the previous prime minister when he changed the pensionable age upwards from age 66. We would like the age to be dropped back to 60 to get our pension
