Ending the cruel two-child limit is exactly what the Chancellor needed to deliver in this Budget and is very welcome news indeed. And brilliant words from Emrys - lifting children out of poverty 'will help everyone really', spot on!
The end of the two-child limit is hugely welcome. Around 350,000 children will be lifted out of poverty. This is a major win for families and for the organisations that have campaigned for years. Here’s Emrys explaining more. (1/3)

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

Major research from @trusselluk.bsky.social today with clear signs that hardship is deepening across the UK and going without essentials, including food, is becoming a more normal part of daily life.
Hunger in the UK isn't inevitable and tackling hardship benefits us all. It's time to act.

🚨 BREAKING: Over 14 million people faced hunger in the UK last year.
That’s 2.5 million MORE people, compared to 3 years ago.
