RT @ButtleUK: Absolutely shocking news to hear that Labour are considering U-turning on their discussions to end the cruel two child limit.

This is incredibly worrying. The government's 'ambitious' plan to lift children out of poverty should never have been delivered at the cost of pushing disabled people into poverty.

This includes pushing families with children into poverty. At the same time as the government is also developing a strategy which aims to tackle UK child poverty.

Thank you so much for listening, and really hearing, our youth ambassador's stories. Hopefully providing a small snap shot of what life may be like for the 4.5 million children in the UK who are living in poverty.

A young person representing @CPAGUK ended the @NoChildBehindUK #FreeSchoolMealsForAll conference with a powerful message,. ‘Whilst expansion of the scheme is good, without universal provision there is still a dividing line in every classroom’.

Why should we provide universal free school meals? One benefit is a boost to the economy explains Prof Bundy from @SchoolMeals_ . This includes £ returns and job creation. @NoChildBehindUK #FreeSchoolMealsForAll

This is why universal free school meals are so important - all kids are equal. Thanks Mr Maloy from Grange Primary School in Ealing for explaining this to us at @NoChildBehindUK conference for #FreeSchoolMealsForAll

And the children who live in these families. At a time when the government has planned to reduce levels of child poverty across the UK. We could see figures for child poverty rise as a result.

Sadly, if the cuts go ahead they’ll devastate the lives of hundreds of thousands of disabled people and carers.

And this includes families with children 👇. On one hand the government are developing a strategy to lift children out of poverty, whilst pushing through a Bill which will push more families with children in poverty.

Government just published the Universal Credit & PIP Bill. It’s shocking. Mitigations will protect only a small minority of disabled people & carers. 100s of 1000s will be pushed into severe hardship. @TrussellUK

This is such amazing news, and will make a huge difference for families living in poverty in Scotland: @Keir_Starmer we now need this for families across the UK.

Thank you Sting for speaking our for children living in poverty in the NE. The govt response? They are dealing with an inherited crisis - yet 1 year in and this govt still haven't scrapped the 2-child limit - which would lift 400,000 kids out of poverty.
