Following the decision to not give the WASPI Women a settlement, Joe Robertson MP said, 

"I am very disappointed in this decision by the Government. 

"This is a matter of priorities, and today the wrong choice was made for WASPI women.

"The Government has given a £9,000 pay rise for train drivers already earning an average of £60,000, and £10 billion for a GB Energy scheme that won’t produce any energy—yet not a penny for the WASPI women, who continue to be overlooked. People will rightly question these choices by the Government about where to provide support."
