I am absolutely devastated by the dismissal in court yesterday. I have been campaigning and demonstrating for over 3 years and belong to several on line groups as well as WASPI.
I am 63 and desperate to retire as I am in pain constantly with my joints and mentally exhausted at doing my job.
I have worked since I was 15 and have very little in the way of a private pension as I supported my ex husband in his climb up the career ladder. He worked away quite a lot and I worked jobs around the child care (term time and part time) and in our latter years together looked after his mum.
The idea was that his pension would be sufficient for us both to retire together.
When I was 40 he left me for my friend, I had a breakdown and was quite ill at the time. I signed a divorce settlement that said I would not touch his pension.
He retired at 55 and lives very comfortably (still with my ex friend who is also retired)
