Rejected petition Ask Theresa May to acknowledge that women have 6 year wait for their pensions
We note the PM's responses are always the same that "no-one will have to wait longer than 18 mths" to receive their pensions, we feel this is mis-leading as this only refers to the 2011 Act, when 50's women also bear the brunt of the '95 Act where 5 yrs were also added to their SPA = 6 years
More details
We feel it is wrong to disregard such an important issue when discussing the hardship that 50's women are experiencing due to the 6 year wait, especially as they were not notified of the 1995 Act.
We ask that the Prime Minister acknowledges in Parliament the fact that 50's women do in fact have a 6 years wait for their pensions and advise other MP's to do the same

Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could ask the Government to make a clear statement to Parliament about the effect of changes to the state pension age since 1995.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
