    Be interesting to see what happens tomorrow (if anything). Sadly, there seem to be a lot of ladies out there who think that a decision in their favour will mean the automatic issue of a cheque for £KKKs.

    WASPI's last accounts on Companies House show they had 80 grand in the bank in February 2018. What they have a year and a half later is anyone's guess but it would be a surprise if they didn't have enough put by for some more first-class train tickets and champers.

    (This is going by company number 10380633. There are quite a few others after all the WASPI People's Front / People's Front of WASPI nonsense, and I'm not going to look into all of them.)

    I wonder how much of this money came from women who really couldn't afford to pay, but fell for WASPE's promises of a huge cheque.

    Money that would be better spent on helping WASPE members who really are struggling.

    Don't hold out too much hope. The tide is against the claim
