More than 80 Labour MPs who pledged to support women impacted by changes to the age – but have now been silent since the Government’s announcement to refuse them compensation.
These are the senior MPs named and shamed who posed with placards pledging to support the Women Against Inequality (WASPI) campaign.
But they appeared not to have slammed the Goverment for U-turning on its promise to the women born in the 1950s.
Pensions Secretary Liz Kendall in the Commons yesterday issued an apology for a 28-month delay in sending out letters to those born in the 1950s impacted by changes.
Take a look at the moment Labour made their promises to the campaign in our photo gallery below:

Pensions Secretary Liz Kendall is the person who confirmed women born in the 1950s would not receive a penny for the impact of changes to state pension.
