Hansard Parliament - PENSIONS BILL - 10 uses of FAIR in the opening paragraphs. Apparently “The concept means different things to different people” 🤷🏼♀️ #50sWomen know to their cost government has no concept of fair. #BackTo60#FullRestitution 1/7
⬇️⁉️
“Government chose NOT to accept the amendment which required trustees to make an assessment of the extent to which a scheme is operating in a manner FAIR to all members; it has been REMOVED by Commons Amendment 1.” Could a case be denied on ‘no RIGHT to fairness?’ #BackTo60 2/7

When young I was denied joining my employer’s pension scheme because I was a woman. Other employers allowed only monthly paid or those earning over a certain amount to join. Women were generally weekly paid & unlikely to earn the same as men. #BackTo60#FullRestitution#50sWomen
Later years I believed my firm had a pension scheme for male employees. I asked my then boss if it would be possible for me to have a pension to support a meagre SP. He said no. To comfort me he reminded me I reached SPA at 60, which wasn’t too bad!#BackTo60#50sWomen#NoCrumbs
