Just been talking to a friend who is one of the WASPI women, she is mega excited because she has read they will get £46,000 each paid before December.
there are 12.5 million of so pensioners
lets assume women make up just over 50% at 6.5 Million
if 15% fall into the WASPI bracket that's a million so total payout £46 Billion.
cost of a winter fuel payment to all pensioners £3.8 Billion
Lol can't get it through that if they can't afford £3.8 Billion they certainly can't find 12 times as much

You would be surprised keitha. We were offered 2% parish, then 3.2%. TU refused it. Strike action starts 14th for 8 days. Suddenly 5% will be tabled. Funny how the money will Suddenly be found when tourists at the Edinburgh tattoo take pics of rubbish 10ft high by the castle. Btw, who pays £5k for 1 night in a hotel? Balmoral Edinburgh. Or 800 quid for a seat at the tattoo.
