"The limit, which was introduced under the #Conservatives in 2017 & allowed #parents to claim universal credit (UC) or tax credits for their first 2 #children only, was scrapped by the #Labour government at the last budget. The decision means from 6 April low-income families could be entitled to a payment equal to about £300 a month for each additional child in the household. Families already on UC should get the extra money automatically."
