Whatever else this government do (and there's plenty of issues with this budget) ministers will always be able to point to this as an incredible important contribution to the country's future. Almost half a million kids taken out of poverty.
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

Goodnight, king. We’ll be toasting with some black coffee and a warm slice of cherry pie. Rest now, and thank you for all the strange, cinematic majesty.

This seems fun. If I remember to keep up with it, that is.

Oh this sucks, he was a key figure in my early awareness of politics in the 2000s.
Above all though, he always just seemed like a decent bloke.

RIP Mr Prescott

(I’m not a religious person at all, but if there’s an afterlife, I hope someone lobbed an egg at him as he got there anyway)
Some breaking news this morning:

The former deputy prime minister John Prescott has died aged 86, his family have announced. 

We’ll be talking about his life and career with guests from the New Labour era on @BBCr4today @BBCBreakfast @bbc5live
