More than eight in ten Labour members support end to two-child benefit cap - LabourList

planetwise.bsky.social @planetwise.bsky.social · Aug 19

84% of Labour Party members want the government to end the two-child benefit limit.

In a country as wealthy as the UK, allowing child poverty to deepen is a political choice. Labour must choose differently.
