DWP WASPI £2,950 Compensation 2025 Update, State Pension Changes Leave Millions Waiting

The debate over compensation for the Women Against State Pension Inequality (WASPI) group continues into 2025, as campaigners seek justice for millions of women affected by State Pension age changes. Despite widespread attention, the UK Government has yet to approve a payment plan. The widely discussed £2,950 figure stems from an Ombudsman recommendation rather than an official promise, and any possible disbursement is unlikely before mid-2026.

UK New Income Tax Reform

UK New Income Tax Reform 2025, Say Goodbye to Hidden Taxes With the £20,000 Allowance

A proposal to raise the UK’s Personal Allowance (PA) from £12,570 to £20,000 has gained significant traction, with over 281,000 citizens signing a petition by September 2025. Supporters say it could free millions from paying Income Tax and boost disposable income for workers and pensioners. However, Treasury officials warn that the cost estimated between £40 billion and £50 billion annually makes it fiscally unsustainable without spending cuts or new taxes.
