Ending the cruel two-child limit is exactly what the Chancellor needed to deliver in this Budget and is very welcome news indeed. And brilliant words from Emrys - lifting children out of poverty 'will help everyone really', spot on!

Scrapping the two-child limit in full is a monumental decision. Well done to all involved in the Child Poverty Strategy, and everyone who has made the case against the policy. OBR says scrapping costs £3 billion in 2029-30 and will lift 450,000 out of poverty

Major research from @trusselluk.bsky.social today with clear signs that hardship is deepening across the UK and going without essentials, including food, is becoming a more normal part of daily life. Hunger in the UK isn't inevitable and tackling hardship benefits us all. It's time to act.
