1."The balance it (the Court) has fixed upon now favours Govt power over claims of individuals" Aidan O'Neill QC
#50sWomen certainly feel victims of an imbalance of power in the way #SupremeCourt dismissed their case as "out of time"
#WednesburyUnreasonableness
#FullRestitution

2. #50sWomen suspect that judges in High Court #judicialreview may have been unduly influenced by Govt misrepresentation of the impact of a positive judgement in favour of our claim
➡️suggestion of "opening floodgates" of similar claims & "unaffordability"
Should be irrelevant!

Prof Conor Gearty QC:
The post 2020 #SupremeCourt has reverted to....."legal formalism"...."displaying an old-school lack of interest in the lived experience of those whose plight have brought them to judges' attention"
Too true for #50sWomen

4. To anyone who hates blatant #injustice:
NOW would be a very good time to sign this petition if you haven't already done so!

#SupremeCourt refused to hear #50sWomen appeal re. #discrimination on "paper thin" grounds
change.org/p/prime-minist…

#50sWomen were not even allowed to have our case heard by #SupremeCourt, in spite of our appeal being permitted on ALL grounds
So presumably our case could not form part of the #APPGDC review & report
Was Govt afraid we would win our case?
