Court of Appeal's rejection of women's pension age case is ‘nothing short of a disaster’
The Royal Courts of Justice
A JUDGEMENT from the Court of Appeal today over the raising of the state pension age for women born in the 1950s was described as “nothing short of a disaster.”
Nearly four million women have been affected by reforms introduced by successive governments to ensure “pension age equalisation,” which have raised the state pension age for this group from 60 to 66.
The court ruled that the reforms were not discriminatory.
