Council 'wasting money' in pension debatepublished at 12:44 British Summer Time 30 April 2018

An opposition councillor has accused the leadership of Leicestershire County Council of wasting taxpayers' money after they refused to support Women Against State Pension Inequality (WASPI) campaigners.
The WASPI campaign group is fighting against changes which mean women born in the 1950s won't be able to claim until they turn 65.

Lib Dem Cllr Linda Broadley asked her colleagues at County Hall in December to sign a letter to central government pledging the council's support for the campaign.
But arguments erupted in the council chamber with the Conservatives refusing to show their support as the changes would see working-age people forced to cover the £30 billion shortfall.
The authority has now said it will raise the issue in Westminster through an all-party parliamentary group set up to look at state pension inequality. But Ms Broadley said the row has rumbled on for too long and the council should have simply shown its support in the first place.
She said: "The way it's carrying on is a waste of ratepayers' money. All this should be about is the WASPI campaign."
