WITH the Prime Minister's recent announcement that austerity is now over, would it be a good time to reimburse the 1000s of women who had six years of their pension grabbed by the Conservative Government in 2011 via the 2011 Pension Act?

Done at short notice, and without giving them time to prepare for their retirements, the government could cancel the EU white elephant HS2, along with reducing the over-bloated, non-transparent foreign aid budget, and pay the money owed to these women back.
