Liverpool's Waspi women "£2000 is an insult"
A watchdog has recommended the government pays compensation of up to £3000 to women born in the 1950s who were affected by the increase in the state pension age from 60 to 66.
The Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman criticised what it called poor communication about the change. It has also asked parliament to intervene, saying it doesn't believe the Department for Work and Pensions will comply with its findings.
