Will anyone really be surprised if Starmer's Labour do badly in the May elections? The Tories suffered a complete & total collapse, but since coming into office Labour has basically sounded like & felt like more of the same. Where's the change? Where's the hope? Where's the reason?

£33 million - Labour's current budget for the free breakfast club trial £365 million - cost of free breakfast clubs for all primary schools £3,400 million - the cost of removing the two child benefit cap You can see why Labour are focusing on breakfast clubs and not removing the benefit cap

Labour ministers are apparently ruling out scrapping the two-child benefit cap - in other words, choosing to keep 600,000 children in poverty. Meanwhile govt refuses to consider a wealth tax which could £24bn. Hard to find the words for this level of unnecessary cruelty.
