flag Labour’s Bridget Phillipson says ending the two-child benefit cap is under consideration, calling it harmful to children.

flag Labour deputy leadership candidate Bridget Phillipson has said abolishing the two-child benefit cap is "on the table," calling it a "spiteful" policy that harms children. flag As Education Secretary and co-chair of the government’s child poverty taskforce, she wants to make tackling child poverty the central mission of a future Labour government. flag While Prime Minister Keir Starmer has not committed to ending the cap, he has not ruled it out. flag Phillipson’s comments reflect growing support within Labour for scrapping the policy, which limits benefits to two children per family and has drawn criticism from charities and campaigners.
