Pensions ‘injustice’ leaves generation of women in crisis as inflation bites

Women born in the 1950s have been hard hit by rushed changes to the state pension age

Thousands of older women are struggling with the cost of living because of a pensions injustice" dating back years that has never been put right, according to campaigners.

They say large numbers of women born in the 1950s are having to go without, or can only afford basics, often because they have used up their savings and do not have the financial cushion to cope with soaring living costs.
