The reasons Waspi women are not happy with the government............

In total around 2.6 million women were affected by the 2011 changes. While some of them had time to adapt to a longer working life, for others the change came as a shock.

In particular, around 300,000 women born between December 1953 and October 1954 and getting close to their state pension age, were made to wait an extra 18 months.

For women who were not aware of the 1995 changes, the shock was more severe. They had been expecting to retire at 60, but discovered that they would have to wait years longer.

They complained they had not been given time to adjust to the new retirement age and also that the changes in 1995 and 2011 had not been clearly communicated.

The free high speed broadband is looking bleak if he's got to pay out 58 billion for the Waspi's, perhaps free dial-up if your postcode comes up in the raffle.

Where’s he getting £58billion from? That’s almost double the defence budget.
Just printing it out of thin air....as required.
The Uk’s joining the same strategy as the FED, China, Japan, and Europe.
Austerity and monetary sense, forgotten.
No one cares about debt anymore....especially Politicians, it’s all about getting elected on fake promises.

I've seen Lenin. In his mausoleum on Red Square. He's definitely dead. You have to whizz round dead quick, no photos, in and out in literally 10 secs, in case you cop a good look at the poor condition of his yead. Rumour has it it's only his head, body is just straw.

That's a Soviet banknote BTW, not a Russian one!

It’s actually a repurposed CCCP note from Transnistria

plunge us in to more debt, Corbyns fecking clueless and just providing lip service and with no real idea of what he is really saying

So you borrow £58bn and give it to retirement age women, what do you think they do with it?
Do they:
a. Put it into offshore hedge funds and invest in foreign businesses
b. Spend it predominantly in the UK causing economic growth that leads to job creation and more employment means more money being paid, more taxes being paid, more economic growth...

Let’s not pretend that the tories stopped borrowing money, they didn’t. They have also left education in a state, the NHS in a state, more children in poverty than we should admit as one of the world’s richest countries...
