Petition Approx 48 thousand women face a double blow from government

More details

Approx 48 thousand women are affected by the governments plans to bring in the higher rate of pension in April 2017. The age group already penalised by having to wait upto 6 years longer for their OAP now will only get the lower rate of pension. We were told if we waited longer for our OAP we would get a higher rate when eligable. NOT SO.
There isnt many of usin this group, so we need to get our families to support us. Spread the word.
IDS please review the double blow you are inflicting of women born between 1950 and 54.
