This row refuses to ɗιe. Cɑmpɑigners sɑy the DWP hɑs mɑde ɑ WRONG DECISION, reopening fury over WASPI women. Pressure is now mounting for ministers to bɑck down — fɑst.

The long-running dispute over WASPI women has erupted once again, after campaigners accused the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) of making a “wrong decision”, reigniting anger among thousands of women born in the 1950s who were affected by changes to the state pension age.

Campaign leaders say the latest stance from the government has reopened deep frustration over how the pension changes were introduced, arguing that many women were not properly informed and were given little time to adjust their retirement plans. As a result, large numbers are said to have faced unexpected financial hardship, forcing some to remain in work longer than planned or rely on savings and family support.

The renewed backlash follows years of legal challenges, protests and parliamentary debates, with campaigners insisting the issue is no longer about policy, but about fairness and accountability. They continue to call for compensation, saying ministers have failed to acknowledge the personal and financial damage caused.

Pressure is now mounting on the government to rethink its position quickly, as supporters warn the WASPI row will continue to dominate political debate unless ministers back down and offer a meaningful resolution.
