Next week, the SNP plans to introduce a bill for Waspi women’s compensation, hoping for support from various parties in Parliament.
Edinburgh: The SNP is gearing up to push for a vote in the House of Commons next week. They want to talk about compensation for Waspi women. It’s a big deal for many folks affected by changes in the state pension age.
Stephen Flynn, the SNP Westminster leader, is set to present a bill on Tuesday. He’s calling for Labour to change their stance and pay up. It seems like some Labour MPs might back this, which could be a game-changer.
Flynn has been vocal about how Waspi women have been let down. He pointed out that Labour broke promises about compensation. He’s urging them to step up and make things right.
This push comes after the Scottish Parliament voted unanimously for the UK government to provide financial help to these women. It’s clear there’s a lot of support for this cause.
Flynn believes the SNP’s bill will get backing from various parties. He’s hoping Labour MPs will do the right thing and support it. If they don’t, he warns that voters will see through their empty promises.
