It was a pleasure to present a petition on behalf of the residents of East Worthing and Shoreham in support of the WASPI women. There was a fantastic spectacle in House of Commons as members of all parties present over 90 petitions on behalf of WASPI campaign from around the country
I hope the sheer number of MPs involved and strength of feeling we have shown today with this collective, cross-party action, including many Conservative MPs, will finally encourage the Government to get real about this issue, get around the table and properly address the concerns of women up and down this country, who have worked hard their entire lives and face an unfair and worryingly uncertain future at present.
The Government have not properly engaged in this issue and the WASPI women, some of them in real dire straits, deserve to have their case heard and for the Government to listen and deliver on its promise to build a country that work for everyone.
