Another classic example of media rightwing bias.
This story on ending the #TwoChildBenefitCap
- First paragraph says it will "cost a lot of money" (quoting the Education Secretary)
- Last paragraph says it will lift 470,000 children out of poverty (quoting the Resolution Foundation)

Maybe, but when a single policy ( #TwoChildBenefitCap ) is widely understood as the leading cause of child poverty, eliminating it should pay for itself.
@ChrisMayLA6 @RichardJMurphy
Deeply disturbing that, a month on, there is still no concrete plan to drop the #TwoChildBenefitCap
This is Kirsty McNeill's maiden speech as Labour MP for Midlothian where she makes her "solemn commitment" to the children of Midlothian that she will be their "champion".
"We are all of us products of investments made in us as children" - how true Kirsty.
She voted to keep the two-child benefit cap.
I worked in Education in Midlothian for many years and saw first-hand the child poverty that exists there.

#KidStarver Could See First Rebellion Tonight Over Horrid #TwoChildBenefitCap
My comment in the German taz, about what the Labour government is...
Nach 16 Jahren Tories könnte die Starmer-Regierung ein Befreiungsschlag sein. Bei der Kinderarmut setzt sie aber schon jetzt die falschen Prioritäten. https://taz.de/!6022240/ via @tazgetroete #Labour @keir_starmer #twochildbenefitcap,

Labour Under Pressure to Axe Cruel #TwoChildBenefitCap with 1.6mn Kids Affected
Ditching two-child limit is a no-brainer. Why doesn’t Labour commit to it?

Keir Starver should grow a pair of bollux and search for his heart.
"Labour’s position is that we can’t mitigate against poverty because we’re skint. But resource allocation is the ultimate political choice. "

Politics is about priorities as much as it is about cost. Consider #KeirStarmer's refusal to abolish the #TwoChildBenefitCap despite the overwhelming case against it.
Abolition would cost £1.3bn. The entirely unnecessary #Stonehenge road scheme was initially costed at £1.7bn. Who knows what it would cost now.
So if Starmer scrapped the Stonehenge scheme then his putative future government would be quids in.
Then there's, God forbid, taxing the wealthy. A Tory sin.
Case for abolishing #TwoChildBenefitCap ‘overwhelming’, says report – #UKpolitics live
#YvetteCooper, shadow home secretary, says party could only promise things it can afford as report says benefit caps cause ‘extreme hardship

Some people are saying Keir Starmer has destroyed the Labour Party. No the Labour Party will survive, but it’ll survive as a right wing party (replacing the Tories, who will be destroyed). If you want a party that’ll offer the change this country needs you need to look elsewhere
