MPs vote to end two-child benefit limit in 'crucial step' to tackle poverty
Government
A bill to scrap the two-child benefit limit has passed a major hurdle after MPs voted to end the cruel cap. MPs voted 458-104 to abolish the cap, which marks a major moment in dismantling a policy depriving kids of heating and food. The result came despite opposition from Nigel Farage's Reform party, as well as Kemi Badenoch's Conservatives. The policy - blamed for trapping kids in poverty - will be axed from April and help lift 450,000 kids out of poverty. Announced by Tory welfare slasher
