A petition signed by thousands of women against the changes to the state pension age was delivered to parliament on behalf of ladies in Cornwall by MPs Scott Mann (North Cornwall) and Steve Double (St Austell and Newquay).

The locally signed petition was organised by the Cornwall WASPI (Women Against State Pension Injustice) Friends and delivered to the Bodmin office of Scott Mann by Kathryn Pearn of Lanivet and Janet Haley of Middle Taphouse.

’We entrusted Scott and Steve with our precious petitions to take to the Commons in a mass presentation of petitions by MPs from all over the country and are grateful for their support,’ said Janet Haley.  

’It’s been a humbling process knowing that so many men and women from all over the country have come out in support of our campaign against this injustice.’
