“Labour is in deep trouble with Black voters. Operation Black Vote (OBV) chair David Weaver warns the party is ‘accepting the normalisation of racism’. This isn’t just a polling dip, it is a fundamental collapse of trust from its voters”

Labour's 'normalisation of racism' is a ticking time bomb in marginal seats

Black voters are turning away as Labour pushes through discriminatory jury reforms and fails to deliver on its own diversity promises

ReformUK promised to get rid of the two child benefit cap because they want more babies but they've now decided to reimpose it.
They are all over the place.
When it was scrapped I heard people in the streets complaining that most of the babies born weren't white and that 'they' were going to get our tax money.
Is that why Reform thinks reimposing the two child benefit will be a vote winner?

Ministers considering scrapping two-child benefit cap

The education secretary says the policy pushes people into poverty but warns scrapping it would be costly.

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
Starmer’s two-child benefit cap causing record food insecurity

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.
