Two-child benefit cap has been devastating - Phillipson

Bridget Phillipson, Labour's deputy leadership candidate, criticizes the two-child benefit cap as having a devastating impact and calls for its removal. The government is expected to lift the cap in November, with options such as a tapered system being considered. Phillipson emphasizes the urgency of addressing child poverty, arguing that children should not be punished for external factors. Her stance on scrapping the cap aligns with efforts to reduce child poverty and improve social welfare.
