flag Reform UK reverses stance, promising to reinstate two-child benefit cap if elected, citing fiscal concerns.

flag Reform UK has reversed its stance, pledging to reinstate the two-child benefit cap if elected, according to new Treasury spokesperson Robert Jenrick. flag He cited fiscal responsibility and rising costs, calling the current system unsustainable. flag The policy, originally introduced by the Conservatives in 2017, limits child benefits and Universal Credit to two children per family. flag Reform also plans to restrict welfare to UK nationals, require clinical proof for mental health benefits, and reform the Motability scheme. flag Prime Minister Keir Starmer condemned the move as "shameful," warning it would push hundreds of thousands of children into poverty, contradicting Labour’s efforts to lift half a million children out of poverty.
