Rejected petition abolish age rise related pension rights for women in mid 50 s

More details

women in their mid 50 s now have to wait much longer to get their state pension but they have no hope of making provision financially to offset this. a change like this if required should only be applied to women aged 45 now , if at all,it is causing major distress to many women who are 57-60 who have worked hard and expected to retire.
