1. 1st they came for #50sWomen as they:
💥initially added 5 yrs to our State Pension Age whilst deliberately not telling us
💥took no notice of the lifetime of inequality suffered by #50sWomen
💥or that their private pensions are a fraction of men's
⬇️
2.
💥& auto-enrolment discriminates against women
💥ignored their own pensions committee report that told them exactly those things
💥& the unpaid caring many women carry out
💥then accelerated the rise in SPA by several years
💥& added another year to the SPA for women & men
⬇️
3.
💥reneged on a promise to give women auto-credits that 9.8 million men had been given over 35 years
💥increased the qualifying years to 35
💥reduced widows' pensions especially for those on the New State Pension
💥raised the age at which a couple could get pension credit

#InConclusion – The APPG believes there is clear & irrefutable evidence that #50sWomen have been emotionally traumatised by #DWP Malad
#InConclusion – Lack of notice meant that #50sWomen were unable to adequately plan for their retirement, subjected to great financial anxiety, left feeling frightened & ill-prepared for the future
#InConclusion – Financial anxiety has left some #50sWomen to self-harm & in the most extreme cases taking their own lives

2. Public expenditure on State Pensions in the UK is among the lowest in the OECD; this reflects the fact that the main state pension for current pensioners is nearly £40 per week less than the government’s own poverty threshold (the means-tested minimum guarantee Pension Credit)
3. The new Single Tier Pension is just above the single rate of Pension Credit but due to transitional rules, it will be decades before women generally receive as much state pension as men.

In 1995 State Pension Age for #50sWomen was increased from 60 to 66 in one fell swoop

It was decided that those women were NOT entitled to be informed of such a life-changing decision

Resulting in:
💥Retirement Annihilated
💥Stress / Illness
💥Heat Or Eat
💥No Dignity Image

💥No Respect
💥No Independence
💥No Rights
💥No Dignity
💥No Security
💥Women Now Being Kept By Partner After Lifetime Of Independence
💥Women Having To Sell Their Home or Run Up Massive Debt
💥Women At Risk Having To Work In A Pandemic
💥Early Deaths Image

At the very time that #50sWomen were having 6 years SP stolen; from 1983 to 2018 almost 9.4m MEN were awarded 5 years' NI contributions enabling them to retire 'EARLY'

HOW is this #EQUALITY? WHY is it acceptable?

1/ WOMEN LIKE ME were born in a different era
Women like me were fed a set of rules on how women should behave and what they should expect to achieve in life
Women like me faced prejudice in education and opportunity
Women like me were restricted in our choice of jobs
2/ Women like me could not take a loan or a mortgage without husband to guarantor, in some cases not even open a bank account.
