Hi everyone, Please take a few minutes to sign MP Greg Mulholland’s petition. Greg started the petition on behalf of the armed forces widows that have remarried and were left behind when the Prime Minister claimed in November 2014, that all armed forces widows would now receive their pensions for life. https://www.change.org/p/ministry-of-defence-justice-for-war-widows?platform=hootsuite Their campaign also has the support of MP Angus Robertson and is now receiving more widespread media coverage. https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/news/moray/847138/moray-war-widows-fight-unfair-pension-policy/ As the government has chosen to compare and contrast the pension position of police and armed forces widows that have remarried or moved in with a partner - a victory for them could potentially have a positive impact on our campaign, and I know that our success so far has given this smashing group of ladies a great deal of hope. Cathryn
