Conor McGinn MP Member of Parliament for St Helens North
Thousands of ex-miners in St Helens Borough and the North West aren’t getting their fair share in retirement – it’s why I’ve fought for a better deal for them and their families since I was elected
The recently published report and the enquiry which I campaigned for must be a wake-up call for the Government to finally act.
This key report makes clear that thousands of ex-miners in St Helens Borough and the North West shamefully aren’t being given their fair share in retirement.
For the Government to profit from miners’ hard-earned pensions in this way is a gross injustice.
It’s why I’ve campaigned for a better deal for them and their families since I was elected.
The Government needs to commit to implement the recommendations fully, and finally deliver the fair pensions deserved by miners for their hard work and sacrifices.
