What the petition asks

All Pensions (including the women born in the 1050's) are due the money they have paid into the system without it being called a Benefit. It is not, it has saved by the people for their retirement and should not be pilfered for any other government departments
Please refer to the media for millions and millions of references towards WASPI women, Back to 60 and many other similar organisations desperately trying to get their point across to a ignoring Government and ignorant public
