Griffith: Labour has betrayed Waspi women

Andrew Griffith has accused the government of "betraying" Waspi women over changes to the state pension age in the UK.

The government has chosen not to compensate women born in the 1950s, claiming most knew about the pension changes.

But the shadow business secretary says Labour campaigned on how they were going to "right the injustice", before changing their position after winning the election.
