"6 years with no income"."I worked hard all my life and then I had to wait a whole six years with no income."
So she worked all her life and never made any financial commitment to her employer's (if one existed) or a private pension ?
Therefore, knowing she would be totally reliant on the State Pension after retiring but never bothering to check whether her State Pension would commence on the date she expected and presumably how much her State Pension would be ? A few hours at most is all it would have taken.
She's wanting to blame Government and DWP for her own failings.
Or she could have got off her arse and got a job,which is what a man aged 60+ would have had to do until he got his state pension.
