ECHR upholds Lords' decision to refuse widow's benefit to widowers

Comment

The whole issue of widows vs widowers pensions seems to be a case of extraordinary discrimination against men. I have a letter from the treasury stating that "traditionally men work and women do not". How absurd in todays obsessive non discriminatory society. Does anyone know if the issues around equality which have been reported in the news this week have any bearing on this whole issue.
