Every single day, 109 children across the UK are pulled into poverty by the two-child benefit cap.
But there is an easy solution - taxing gambling companies could generate £3.2billion, enough to scrap both the two-child limit and the benefit cap.

The horrific train attack last weekend could have been so much worse - but thanks to the incredible bravery of rail staff and passengers, lives were saved.
Heroes like Samir Zitouni, who blocked the attacker to protect others, deserve national recognition. Let’s make sure they get it.

Colossal amounts of OUR money is being stuffed into the pockets of energy giants – all while they lay off hardworking Brits and pay out billions to shareholders.

British public: The cost of living crisis is crushing working people.
Nigel: What if minimum wage workers make even less?
Many of the companies paying workers minimum wage make billions in profit every year. Why do the Reform Party want to squeeze the working class instead of taxing the super rich?

£20bn sounds like a lot, but just a 2% tax on assets over £10 million would raise £24bn. That’s a tax that would only affect the top 20,000 richest people in the country.
The idea that Rachel Reeves needs to raise taxes on working people to balance the budget is simply false. Tax the ultra-rich.

The Reform Party’s newest MP, Sarah Pochin, has admitted her comments were “phrased poorly”. Let’s call them what they were: racist.
This half-baked apology is not enough. The Reform Party must suspend Pochin immediately to show that racism has no place in politics.

Three Nazi-inspired extremists have been jailed after plotting attacks on Muslim and Jewish communities.
This wasn't an idle threat of violence. They were assembling 3D-printed guns, stockpiling 200 weapons, and actively recruiting members.

Over 25,000 NHS staff received car parking fines at hospitals last year.
One neonatal nurse even had to borrow money to pay their fine after rushing to relieve a colleague on shift.
Should NHS staff be punished for turning up to care for patients?

🚨 Yet another new low for the water industry.
The Environment Agency has just given eight out of nine water companies a failing grade - the worst results on record.
Privatised water has failed customers and our environment. It’s time for a system that puts people and planet before profit.

The Reform Party’s biggest council is descending into chaos.
Its leader, Linden Kemkaran, was caught on video shouting down fellow Kent councillors and telling them to “suck it up”.
If this is how Reform runs its flagship council, does this make you concerned about its ability to run the country?
