More than 100 seats won by Labour at the general election could be at risk because of the Government’s decision not to award WASPI women with £10billion in compensation, it has been reported.

Calls for women born in the 1950s to receive thousands of pounds that they feel is owed to them were rejected last week by the Work and Pensions Secretary Liz Kendall.

WASPI was founded in 2015 and campaigns for women who say they were not properly informed about their state pension age being raised from 60 to 65 to equalise it with men.

Now, it has been reported by the i that Labour holds 135 seats in England and Wales in which the number of women affected is higher than the party’s majority.

In 58 of these constituencies, the newspaper adds, the estimated population of these women is more than double Labour’s majority.

In nine places, the WASPI population is more than ten times.

The list of areas that could be lost include Neil Duncan-Jordan MP’s seat – Poole.

Mr Duncan-Jordan gained the seat from the Conservatives with a majority of just 18 votes.

There are approximately 5,640 women impacted by state pension age changes in his constituency, according to data from the House of Commons Library.

Terry Jermy, MP for South West Norfolk, meanwhile, narrowly unseated former prime minister Liz Truss in July.

He currently has a majority of only 630 votes.

It comes after WASPI woman Jenny Cox, 71, the wife of FairFuelUK campaigner and Reform UK’s candidate for London’s mayoralty earlier this year, Howard Cox, told Express.co.uk that she will miss out on £35,000 and has been left “inconsolably heartbroken” by the decision.

She added that the move makes her feel as if female claimants are “subordinate” to men.

Chancellor Rachel Reeves has been savaged by WASPI women over her claim that compensation would not be the best use of taxpayers’ money.

The organisation said: “Raising #WASPI women’s pension age has already saved the government £181billion.

“Recompense would cost £10billion, a tiny fraction of that sum. Our polling shows that most UK adults (i.e. taxpayers) support compensation.”
