    The WASPI women's money is being spent on immigrant's hotel bills.

    How about getting back the bonuses or a percentage(50% at least) of them for the last 10 years.
    The shareholders who have enjoyed the 'profits' should also have to pay back some of them as well.
    That way we tax payers who are held to ransom by the water monopolies don't have to double dip to pay for the investment in the infrastructure that the water rates were supposed to have funded since they were privatised by the Conservatives.

    How can the state / taxpayer pay out £10 billion to the women who lost pension money through poor communication? With a £22 billion black hole, it would be a large chunk of public money in one payout.
    It would, however, be possible to pay the women incrementally over a few years so that they do get the ombudsman-advised compensation.

    I have never known two people to talk over each other so much so how are we suppose to know what they saying.
    As a Waspi myself I want to let you know I was an NHS senior nurse every NHS employee was sent a contract re our NHS pension. I stated on mine that I can only retire on my pension if I had my state pension at the same time. So I signed to retire at 60. However about two years later the retirement age for women was put up to 63. I was not happy but yet within a few months the government changed it again to 65 in line with the men. I wrote to HR and the pension team that I wanted to change my retirement age to 65 otherwise I could not live on just my NHS pension. They refused and stated I had signed it and there was no going back. Then the government again put the retirement age up to 67. Unfortunately I fractured my spine at work and was made to take early retirement at 58. I had nothing to live on only the help of family. I received my NHS pension when I was 60 but had to wait 7 years until I received my State Pension. So yes I am furious the government are failing to pay us back because it caused me loss of both pensions.

    Why do GMB have this failed ex-chancellor politician on their show so often - I really don't need Kwasi's advice on anything. In favour of labour and their decision over Waspi - there was no commitment in their manefesto and also - Reeves made clear she had not set money aside for compensation - prior to the last GE. Clearly Labour's handling of this isn't great but their decision not to compensate is absolutely sound.

    Labour at every opportunity without exception are determined to deny money to citizens of the UK yet are more than happy to give it away on the world stage. Sorry there is an exception to repay their supporters with huge increases in wages for the unions.Its not very surprising when you pay the PERSONAL Office Expenses of the Labour front bench. Its amazing what £250,000 ( × 12) on average will buy you these days sorry there called 'DONATION'. RETURN FOR AUGUST. REEVES, RAYNOR, Lammy, Streeting, Milliband, Cooper etc etc etc. Remember this is where they got their fine clothes from - you don't know what other dubious expenses have gone through. So whilst they were lying and smiling they were living the high life rubbing shoulders with milionaires. On average they only have to make one big decision a week and they have cocked up and passed of member of the electorate. In addition they have continued to add to the shameful illegal immigration crisis started by the Tories. It not a change or a plan its another pack of lies. There is a break now but the extra deaths of the oap's will start showing in January 2025 when we have rejoined the EU and given away our fish again. We will see what Trump thinks about Chagos 😂.
